Verizon's prepay phones perfect for the kids

Verizon's prepay phones are perfect for parents like me! Phone plans tend to be a little too expensive for your average teenage child, yet some parents (such as myself) refuse to just pay their child's bill because it is not a necessity.

My son uses his own allowance to pay for his phone bill, or rather, buy his minutes. Most children use text--- A LOT! They don't make very many calls, so Verizon's .99/day only when you use it is perfect! Before the introduction of paying only on the days you used the phone, having a prepaid would cost $30/month, even if you never used it.

Now, my son can buy a $10 text plan, and that's all his phone costs for the month (unless he makes calls). And, if he loses his phone, which he does a lot, they are inexpensive to replace.
