[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 652720, member: 15801"] Just a different take on the phone issue. I totally understand the idea of cutting off the phone and support it if it is right for you. However for me I have decided to keep my son on our cell phone plan. The absolute worst time for me was when he was homeless and lost his phone because then I went through many a night not knowing if he was alive or dead. When he has a phone on our plan then at least I could go on line to see if he was using to make calls and if he was at least I knew he was alive. That helped me and it is for that reason I will keep him on our plan. Yes he may use it to do drug deals or shady things....but I don't think my not funding a phone would stop him from doing those things either but in the really bad times it helped me get some sleep at night.
