Cell phones

Well, I did something scary last night. I changed my individual cell-phone plan into a family plan! Yes, now my three step-kids have cell phones. The older two girls already had pre-paid ones, but they were just wasting money! My 15 year-old boy as been biting at the bit for a phone....so I bit the bullet.

They are responsible for paying their portion, plus any extras they put on there. I am confident they will following through...actually on the middle one worries me, but she could only abuse the phone one month and her father will be on her case like nothing else!

I was against them all having phones for awhile, but now that we live out in the country, it really has become a need. At least for a safety issue. With the plan we got they will each get about 300 minutes, with unlimited nights and weekends. Also, if they call anyone else with the same company, it is unlimited... All this for about $25 a month. Compared to what the girls were paying for the pre-paids, this is cheap.

They have all been really good about not having them before, expecially when all their friends seemed to have had them for years. I guess I am just having a hard time with them growing up! LOL

Have a great day!
