Ok, maybe not, but I absolutely agree with her. :)<br /><br />We have a cell phone too and hardly use it. I do spend quite a bit of time on the computer, though. We will probably do cell phones when my kids are teens, for safety and so I can call them and ask them to pick some things up from the store on their way home.Sonjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08693007110690293244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-671553887128750638.post-438811791432538852009-04-24T11:17:00.000-07:002009-04-24T11:17:00.000-07:00My thoughts?

Too many parents are relying on things (technology) for protection instead of setting boundaries, showing unconditional love, and exemplifying values to their children. IMHO :)<br /><br />I use and rely on a cell phone myself, but I don't see the thrill or real usefulness of texting (although I have a friend who recently said that as YW pres, she's foudn that texting is the best way to contact "her" girls...so maybe there are times to step up and get savvy, but...) I also do not like social networking sites or Twitter - I think it's opening oneself to a little too much. And yet I blog publicly. What can I say? :)Code Yellow Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16283426654179102400noreply@blogger.com
