Having a
cellular phone is a common occurrence in most households throughout the United
States. In our technologically evolving
nation, almost everyone has some type of wireless device regardless of their
age. With so many different instruments
available having the ability to access nearly anything one needs such as
checking an e-mail, browsing the web, taking photos, getting directions through
GPS apps, playing music, on-line banking needs, setting up accounts and paying
bills, and of course making and receiving phone calls. We can’t forget the face to face chatting and
screen share programs now available.
These are just some of the numerous features and functions of a wireless
component, which is designed to help achieve a more convenient life for the
user. But should a family eliminate
their home phone for all the modern conveniences of a cellular phone, and give
up the security, privacy and stability of the family home phone?
A landline
offers many valuable features in the home that many people forget about or
simply do not think about. One never has
to worry about the home security system if it is connected through a landline
or the ability to call for emergency assistance on a home landline. For those who have children or an adolescent
in the home, they know all too well how long a teenagers phone conversation can
be to a friend. People tend to spend
hours on the phone with family, and friends, not realizing the length of a
conversation until they have to count the minutes. With a land line there are no roaming costs
and you pay per minute without worrying about overages. There is no worrying about the battery going
dead during an important call with a landline.
A parent also has the capability to call their home to check up on the
whereabouts of their child and have the peace of mind knowing they are
safe. Whereas when a parent is calling
their child’s cellular phone and left unsure of their location.
There is also
the cost factor to consider. A basic
landline cost is usually, on average, around $25 a month compared to the
astonishing costs of cellular phones that continue to skyrocket.
All these
issues are important points to consider when deciding on what is best for your
family and if you would like to save even more money on your family phone
