one suggestion..seriously, block text messaging from the phone. Not only will this keep the kid off the phone (and thus in the realm of the living) but it will in the long run ensure that he/she is capable of using the english language in writing..instead of "IM".
I go to college at night and the young kids just don't understand that they cannot write in "IM" and have people not judge them.I have, on numerous occasions, seen people have their papers handed back immediatly with the words "I don't teach in "IM" therefore you will not write your paper in "IM"...but even more often they just fail.
Texting is becoming how these kids write,and then they cannot understand why they fail
