Should Your Teenage Have A Cellular Phone?

The time has come and your teenager has asked for one but you're not sure if you should supply one or not. No were not talking about a car. This is the digital age we mean the cellular phone. Perhaps no other decision has caused so much alarm and grief (aside from a credit card) then if you should give your teenage their own cellular phone. The cellular phone companies would advocate for allowing your teenage the use of a cell phone. And certainly there is merit to that suggestion. After all teenagers can use the cell phone in times of emergency such as breaking down on the side of the road or needing a ride home. Don't forget that nearly half of today's teenagers already have a cell phone. Leaving your teenager without one could affect their cool factor with their friends and other teenagers. There probably exist many other emergency situations in which your loved one would need a cell phone.

Unfortunately many teenagers seem to think there is always a crisis going on and ultimately end up using their cell phone for almost everything to include calling and text messaging their friends in no time flat. They may even call you every once in a while. This can result in their using all of the minutes allowed in the cheap, just for emergencies calling plan you selected before the month is halfway over.

For this reason many parents are advocate the use of prepaid cellular phones for teenagers. With a prepaid cell phone, the phone comes loaded with a set number of minutes when you buy it. You add more calling minutes as you need them. There's no annual contract or monthly bills to worry about.

Phone features are something you should really look for when deciding on what prepaid cellular phone provider to use. Some of the free features you should look for include the following:

FREE Roaming
FREE Long Distance
FREE Voice Mail
FREE 3-Way Calling
FREE Call Forwarding
FREE Caller ID
FREE International Calling to over 50 countries
FREE Incoming Text Messaging
NO Activation Fee
NO Programming Fee
NO Monthly Bill
NO Credit Checks
NO CONTRACTS
NO TAXES

We hope this information has been helpful in your decision on whether or not to purchase a cell phone for your teenager. Now you only have to worry about the cellular phone accessories that they want to get for their new prepaid cellular phone.
