For a teenager, sure. Because when they say "BUT ALL MY FRIENDS HAVE ONE!" they're definitely telling the truth as a far as cell phones go. If they're responsible enough not to rack the bill up to $200 a month, then sure. I'm pretty sure most providers can put caps on the amount of minutes and such that you want your kids to have and the phone won't work after that. When I see younger kids like 8 year olds with cell phones, then yeah it's a bit much. At that age they don't need anything more than a cheap pre paid phone for emergencies or one of those pre-progammed 4-5 number deals.
Well I am sure that most phone's stop working when the minutes/texts run out. I could be wrong being that I never run close to my minute limit being that I have US Cellular, which is free incoming/night & weekends but I'm pretty sure that when you are getting close to your limit it will send you an alert or something like that.
