I suggest very strongly that any parent that gives a phone to a kid should get one of the unlimited text plans. You can guarantee that few kids will keep track of their usage and make sure they don't exceed their allotment of texts. My 16-year old has done as many as 10,000 in a month. He can have half a dozen conversations going at once, all with girls.
No, he won't call them on his cell phone.
No, he won't call them on his free house phone.
No, he won't chat with them using his computer.
Kids do what they see other kids doing and right now, they text each other for no good reason. You won't likely change their mind.
Being an older fart, I wouldn't send a text message to save my life. Calling is faster.
