I know it's all blah blah blah about kids having phones but when my boys are out and about up and down the street calling for friends to go out on their bike, fliker, skateboard, scooter etc. I want to be in contact with them. They aren't far away at all but sometimes in friends gardens or have called in my parents house so are out of site.
I don't want the kids racking up bills so would limit them to £5/£10pm. They can ring me and I'll phone them back so don't want them phoning people all the time. Ideally VF to VF calls would be included but can't see that happening (or can you add a favourite or two for free calls? One of those family & friend thingies I'm sure I've heard about). A few texts would be ideal too. Don't mind them having wifi either but will block the 3G.
They aren't allowed out now it's dark but it's for weekends and when the summer comes back around. It's also so I can phone them when I'm in work and they've finished school. The house never gets answered so it's pointless ringing that.
So, anybody got their kids a mobile that works and it's not too expensive?
PS. My youngest wants an IP4 but that ain't happening!
