Believe you have to consider all aspects in the current economic climate - personally do no think we have seen the full extent of the recesssion, so would be cautious in considering.

Reading this kinda made me sad. We really do live in a falling world.
My parents have been against me getting a cellphone (I’m a senior in high school and the only one in my youth group without one) and I’ve put up quite a bit of a fight about it. Now, I understand a little more why they’re against it. Most of the time, texting is an intense waste of valuable time. In my opinion, spending time with your friends in person is much better.
Great post, thanks

I think cell phones are usefull if we are using them for the right reasons. Maybe consider turning off your cell phone 15 mins before you go to bed and talk to God, read your Bible, just center your life on Him for the last few minutes before you fall asleep thats my take in it.

First of all, I don’t think that texting is necessarily a terrible thing, but it is the mis-use of it by some people that makes it bad. I also think that it is rude when someone starts texting right in front of you or says wait, I have to text this person back. For emergency purposes or for communication with family that is not seen often, I think texting is fine as long as it does not become addicting. By the way, I don’t have a phone and i really don’t know if I want one or not. Like I said, I don’t think texting is necessarily terrible, it just depends on how it is used and how much it is used.

Hello! I figured it would be nice if I signed your guestbook. I just thought that I would visit your homepage and see what all you have been up to, well - it’s awesome!

Josiah- I don’t think there is anything wrong with cell phones. Cell phones can be used for the wrong reasons but saying it’s wrong to have a cell phone is like saying its wrong to have a car. Cell phones are in no way a bad thing in themselves. (I believe they are a very useful and helpful thing.) But just like cars, or (or practically any technology) they can be used for the wrong reasons. It’s up to us to be responsible, and many teens these days aren’t.
Note:I am a cell phone user and do a good amount of texting. I have however, not become what you’d call addicted. And while i have to be careful with my phone I also like to remind myself where i’d be (I’m a leader in my youth group) if i didn’t have a phone to keep in thouch with people. (I’d be late for every meeting that’s for sure)
Another Note: I live in a country

I don’t have a cell phone yet and I won’t be until I have my drivers license and even then it will be pre-paid and for emergencies only:) Even if I were able to get a phone w/unlimited texting, calling etc. I wouldn’t want one because I’ve seen first hand how addicting it can be. It can almost be as addicting as smoking or drugs (Ihave nothing against people who text but I think it should be used as an emergency.:))
