I think that if there was a bomb threat at the school, or even a real one, there wouldn't be a lot of help I could be through the phone. Although if she was fine, I think that would be very good to know so I wouldn't worry, and she could at least hear a reassuring voice to know that I cared. I don't have one because I don't use the phone much, and she doesn't call me at all when she is away, so I am afraid she would just use it to call others. <BR/><BR/>I am thinking of getting one anyway, so I can call whenever I want.Shelinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09870112367076954109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34779034.post-43758060796593555182007-07-12T20:50:00.000+09:002007-07-12T20:50:00.000+09:00Oh, I'd LOVE the one that opens by itself, I have ...Oh, I'd LOVE the one that opens by itself, I have the hardest time!<BR/><BR/>Yes, my kids have had phones since they began high school. They all played sports and could just call if they forgot something or tell me where and when to pick them up. It is a great time to teach them responsibility.QuiltingFitzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15549596096039062349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34779034.post-30420784962346296442007-07-12T06:45:00.000+09:002007-07-12T06:45:00.000+09:00Can I borrow your phone?

Now we share minutes on the family talk plan and he has not abused the minutes at all. We have over 2,000 roll over minutes in fact.<BR/><BR/>I have told him that I'll pay for the phone but he'd better pick it up any time, any where when I call. I'm the worst at hearing sirens and calling him just to see where he is. When he goes out, I ask him to use the cell phone to call me on my cell phone when he gets home at night. I keep my phone under my pillow (also use it for my alarm) and I can grab it and say "thanks" without DH ever waking up. In the unlikely event I go to sleep while he's out, I don't want to wake up in the middle of the night, wonder if he's home and go running out to the garage to see if his car is home.<BR/><BR/>In today's world, I think we all need cell phones. If it wasn't for needing DHL, I'd cancel my home phone line and just have cell phones.Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10720927550545452529noreply@blogger.com
