Unlimited Texting is a Must
I thought that 300 texts per month should cut it for a 9 and 10 year old. Nope. After one day with modern communictaion devices in their pockets I upgraded to unlimited texting plans. Probably because they have replaced speaking with texting. I got this one from our 9 year old yesterday while he was seated less than 20 feet from me:
Can I have a few Skittles?
Then at dinner last night our 10 year old texted from across the table concerning our 6 year old:
She’s lying.
Texting rules are about to kick in.

Wow, what a great story, you all really are Parkies!! Happy New Year
We all just passed notes instead!
Yes, the notes! I loved the special folding of the illegal notes and the strict notice of confidentiality in all caps: DO NOT READ. ONLY FOR…
Hey Merritt, what did your 6 year old get with the $70 gift certificate, don’t leave us hanging, please.
That is awesome!
Gmom, she got Webkinz. You’re not paying close enough attention. I provided a detailed list, it was even numbered.
I am going to break all texting rules…
Why do 9 and 10 year olds even have cell phones?
Why did your 10-year-old have a cell phone at the dinner table?
Sorry M, I thought they were numbered in order of importance. d and Carrie, I agree, 9 and 10 year olds have no business having cell phones. What happened to Tag or Hide and Go Seek in the front yard? I swear, you kids, and definately not at the dinner table or any other eating situation!! I can see it now Mi Cocina, all of the adults are on their cell phones and now the children too??
I know, what is the world coming to?
