Just because

So this post is just a requirement. I don’t want to start another “too young for”...topic until next week. So I’m going to post a “just because” every week in addition to my original post. Comment if You like if not, it’s just a thought. And here I go....

Just because I can afford it doesn’t mean I should buy it.

                

technical difficulties

So after a couple of weeks of not being able to comment, Im back. I have a lot to say and ask about some of your previous post so look for them please. TTYL

Cell Phones

So this is one question that I kind of have mixed feelings about. I think cell phones are a great way to keep in contact with your child throughout the day.  My children and I all have busy schedules with them at school and football and me at school or work. Some days I am happy if we cross paths at least twice.  : /

Last year we decided to get the older boys, then 10 and 11 cell phones. It started out ok. They call me when they are out of school; I call them when I’m going to be late. Great. It gradually started to get worse. First it stated with the phone constantly ring. Then the messaging back and forth. I mean their pone buzzed and rang more than mine.

This year with my son in 7^th grade, the girls calling started. OMG, all times of day. He has gotten his phone taken away in school more than once already. My younger son always complains about his friends giving away his number to girls that he doesn’t like. : } I mean how rude is that. So I’m thinking, maybe they are too young and not ready for the responsibility that comes with a phone. I just don't know. So my question to you guys is, how young is too young for a cell phone?
