    This is true. And I want to make a public apology for that.

    First of all, be glad he only threatened to show you his shiny new LIP hair.

    Second of all, Dawg-face you've been a disrepectful little snot since you got here! Even if you never said you were a kid, it was pretty obvious. Respect is earned, regardless of age, so don't preach to anyone here that you're not recieving what you've never shown.

    Can we just ban him now? I'm getting flashbacks of the old Ku-sama!

    Exactly. You reap what you sow.


    Oh, and by the way, Dawg-boy...if you want someone's phone number you ASK for it. If they're interested, they'll give it to you. Getting a number because the clerk at the phone store used it to test your new phone and then calling them for a date is, well, creepy. And being grownups, they all know better than to do it anyway for just that reason.

    You should see Ku-sama now he has changed alot.

    Now as for zdog you got along way to go before you will get my respect but telling the truth is a start.

    Ok. Now that we have all got it out of our system, we know how old zdawg is. We know he is a child, and we have said our piece.

    Lets stop the crap talking towards him and treat him with a little dignity, ok? I will delete any further attacks.

    Fact of the matter is, and I think we all lost sight of this, it is against the forum rules to bully or harass someone.

    Not even a little when he clearly earns it? Cus I give that kind of crap to everyone, young old and everything in between...

    I agree with Wenchie when it comes to kids having cell phones. I know my kids won't have cell phones until they are at least into high school. Even then I'm going to do what my parents did to me and give them a prepaid phone that they have to pay for so they learn the responsibility and how much a phone costs... That is if I have kids...

    Sadly, I do see many people nowadays who go over their text messages or anytime minutes and think its not a big deal when their parents yell at them because the family phone bill had an extra 75 dollars added onto it.

    My daughter has a cell phone. She's actually had one. She is 12. She is also earning money babysitting, can go off on her own to certain places, rides her bike to her friends house.

    With independence, it becomes a safety factor. I don't regret giving it to her. There have been times when she has needed it (one that I can remember...her bike broke down a ways from home...and she couldn't fix it...she called me. I picked her up).

    She has a new fancy cell phone. She bought it with her own money that she earned babysitting. She also has texting enabled, which I didn't let her have at first. She gives me the $10 it costs at the beginning of every month and understands that if I get anything over that in my bill, her texting will be turned off. She also knows I don't make idle threats.

    Cell phones are a fact of life now. There are bad parts of that, but there are also safety things that we didn't have growing up that, imo, out weigh the bad.

    Thanks, Adry.
    And, like Wenchie said, I would like to not be hurassed for my age, and only when I deserve it.

    I think absolutely if a child earns it themself and buys it with their own money than absolutely they can have it. Here they have cricket so it's unlimited everything for like $50/mo

    All my grandchildren have cells, it's a safety issue. There will never be a time they are in a situation where they are not in contact with their parents
