Cell phone contract for 2011
You may have bought the phone yourself but your mom can still take it from you at any time. It is s a privilege to have a cell phone so try your best to appreciate it every time you are using it.

You will not set a passcode on your phone.
If it rings, answer it. It is a phone. Say Hello. Use your manners. NEVER EVER ignore a phone call from family…ESPECIALLY your mother.
Phone will be turned off and plugged in to charge by 9pm. It will not be turned back on till after school (after 9am on non-school days). The charger will stay on the bar at all times.
The phone is never on during school.
If the phone gets lost, stolen, or broke it is up to you to replace or fix.
We will put a $30 card on it each month. If you want a $45 then you will have to pay the extra $15 out of your allowance.
Never use your phone to lie, fool, scare, or deceive any other human being, even if it is just as a joke.
If you would not say it in person, then do not text or post it.
If you would not say it out loud in front of your mother, do not say it on the phone to text it. Censor yourself.
Only go to websites that you would look at with your mother.
If you are in public or talking to any other human being, the phone will be silenced or off.
Never send a picture to any person or any website that you would not send to your mother. The only website you are allowed to post any picture on is facebook.
Leave your phone home sometimes and feel safe and secure in that decision. It is not alive or an extension of you. Learn to live without it.
Don’t take a zillion pictures or videos. There is no need to document every little thing. It is okay to take a few…just don’t go overboard. Live your experiences. They will be in your memory for eternity.
Download music that is good for you. Good Christian music or maybe some classical. Don’t always listen to the same thing that everyone else listens to. Be sure you never listen to music that is disrespectful, degrading, or that has bad words.
If you play games on your phone include games with words or puzzles.
Don’t sit around starting at your phone all the time. Keep your eyes up. See the world happening around you. Stare out a window. Listen to the birds. Read a book. Take a walk. Wonder without Googling. You don’t always have to be on your phone.
Your phone will never go in your bedroom or the bathroom.
I, your mother, will also be following all of these rules. We are a team!
