I'm not allowed to text long distance numbers, but I have been because I've been feeling lonely and I need people to talk to. I don't even get why it's so bad. It's not like I'm going to tell the person my address,that's just retarded. I've got my phone taken away for texting long distance numbers before, and it sucks. My mom checks online who I've been texting, and she's going to see all the long distance numbers :( I don't want my phone being taken away. Do you people think there's anyway that will save me from not getting it taken away?
Huh, and here I thought that kind of language was censored on this site. How about you get out of the house and try and make some real friends? I'll admit I talk to two or three people long distance, but I don't truly know those people, how do you know for sure who you're talking to if you've never met them? Your parents are worried about you, and for good reason. People like yourself can get taken advantage of very easily. Someone doesn't necessarily need your exact address to find you, you could be giving away subtle clues you don't even know about. Stick with the people in your area for now, and when you're old enough, feel free to travel and meet new people, and if you still feel like texting them, go ahead, but for now you're under your parents roof and should abide by their rules.
0kai0 is right, it can be really dangerous.
I made the extremely stupid mistake of meeting someone in person that I met online when I was younger, and I'll tell you something. I was damn lucky it was actually who I thought it was. Often I look back at what I did and am grateful that I wasn't snatched by some crazy pervert like I very well could have been.
Now of course, you're not meeting these people, but your parents don't know that. Maybe try to explain to them what you're feeling and why you text these people in the first place. Sometimes parents can be more understanding than you initially believe.
She's gonna fcking check and I can't email the people!!!*
Well then I guess you're toast.
I don't see why you can't email them...if anything, you should have gotten their email address in one of those texts you sent and stopped then.
It's very simple...when you make a choice you also choose the consequences...You must not have missed your phone enough last time, because it didn't stop you from doing the same thing again.
Maybe this time you'll 'get it'...

Well you know you mom does not a prove it so why di it, Like the above said, email them and that it, I mean really theres no way is shes going to check and all that.
there's no way to hide it. she's gonna find out. it's best to just stop now. before the bill gets piled up higher...
She's gonna f*cking check and I can't email the people!!!
