Re: My daughter NEEDS a Cell Phone !
There is a prepaid plan - I think with Virgin - that for $20/month, you get unlimited texting. My boyfriend has one simply because all we do is text each other.
You could try to hassle Bell like my mother has for my plan. Unlimited texting, free after 6pm, 200 min/month, and I don't know what else for about $20/month. But you gotta be really good at negotiating for that.
And there is no way a 14 year old needs a smartphone. I didn't get my first cellphone until I was 17 and it was prepaid. It's a good way for a child to prove to their parent(s) that they are responsible.
