I know what you mean. I finally caved in and got my oldest a cell phone. It was the only thing he wanted for the longest time and his grades were good, so I figured what the heck.
He barely uses it, he just likes to say he has one when his friends are all swapping cell numbers. His is a Tracfone also, so he has to earn up his minutes by helping around the house and keeping his grades up at school. Of course, now the other 3 kids want their own too!
