This is the sort of problem that is facing our society today.

It is obvious that this girl runs them and that they don't control her.  1st, she is not paying the cellphone bill, they are.  She cannot make changes to their cellphone plan, they can and can insure that she cannot by putting a password unknown to her on their account.  2nd, most cellphone providers allow anyone to block texting on any number on their account, if their cellphone company doesn't all they have to do is switch companies.<br>     The kid is 16 and has carpal tunnel syndrome because of it.  She won't stop texting.  It's time for the parents to step up and become responsible parents to protect their daughter's health by blocking texting on child's phone.<br>     ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Holly]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 21st 2010 1:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Gets Carpal Tunnel Syndrome From Too Much Texting]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</guid><description><![CDATA[dion fo prez. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[httredskins4life]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 21st 2010 9:09AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Gets Carpal Tunnel Syndrome From Too Much Texting]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</guid><description><![CDATA[hahahahahahah thanks i accept that nomination]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[dion]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 21st 2010 4:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Gets Carpal Tunnel Syndrome From Too Much Texting]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</guid><description><![CDATA[you are both brainless societally-patterned mindless followers]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[wheelz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 23rd 2010 5:06PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Gets Carpal Tunnel Syndrome From Too Much Texting]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</guid><description><![CDATA[other side effects  are the hump backs, curved shoulders and slouching ... starting to look like that evolution chart... ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dr. Breathless]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 21st 2010 9:40AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Gets Carpal Tunnel Syndrome From Too Much Texting]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</guid><description><![CDATA[An absolutely priceless post.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[otrpu]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 21st 2010 1:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Gets Carpal Tunnel Syndrome From Too Much Texting]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</guid><description><![CDATA[Although, carpal tunnel is a painful side effect.  I feel the WORST side effect of texting is the destruction of the English language.  I estimate that within 20 years, the English language will become totally phonetic.  This may bother no one but the purists, teachers and writers, but I think it is the end of a beautiful language.  Sorry to see it go the way of c u ltr since I am no able to lol!!!<br><br>Sincerely,<br>B]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[B]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 21st 2010 10:19AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Gets Carpal Tunnel Syndrome From Too Much Texting]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</guid><description><![CDATA[Languages come and go. we don't talk like they did in the 1700 and 1800's do we?

What ever happened to talking in person or on the phone?  Isn't Email good enough?  I won't own a cell phone or Ipod or any of those other "toys" adults/kids like to play with.  I pay enough for my telephone at home.  I'm not giving my money to Verizon, etc. so I can text and play on electronic gadgets.  This stupid computer is enough!  Takes up too much of my time already!  I hate the way people spell on Emails, text, etc. If it's misspelled, it makes the person look like an idiot!  My best friend was filling out her taxes, and she didn't capitalize proper names, cities, states, etc.  I asked her, "what's wrong with miami?"  She didn't know.  I pointed out that she didn't capitalize the city name.  She said, "oh, I never do".  I told her if I was her teacher she would get an "F".  And that was her TAXES!!!!   duh! -gregg in sarasota]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gregory Schwartz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 21st 2010 11:40AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Gets Carpal Tunnel Syndrome From Too Much Texting]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree that the spelling and complete disregard of how our language should be used is totally out of control.  When I see somebody misspell so many words, not use capital letters for proper names and using the wrong word (there, they're, their) in their text, all I can think is dumbass!  Or how so many so called college educated people think Germany bombed Pearl Harbor or either Germany or Japan were our Allies.  So many people just don't care and then when somebody corrects them, they get called a Dumbass by the moron who was wrong in the first place.  Some typos and incorrect punctuations are fine, but it is really getting atrocious these days.  I've never been to college.  Instead I joined the Army as an Infantryman because that is what I always wanted to be and do........serve my country, but it is amazing to see how many "higher educated " people have no common sense and total disregard of getting things right.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Outlaw Josey Wales]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 21st 2010 1:25PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Gets Carpal Tunnel Syndrome From Too Much Texting]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</guid><description><![CDATA[see the reason you say that is because you were probably born when jesus christ was in the third grade...seriously calm down not all technology is bad...cell phones are awsome i do 9000 text a month cause i get tired of talking on the phone to people it gets boring..get with the times father time...its 2010..we arent wearing bell bottoms and staying alive in a disco....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[dion]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 21st 2010 4:17PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Gets Carpal Tunnel Syndrome From Too Much Texting]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/19/teen-gets-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-too-much-texting/</guid><description><![CDATA[Why does her mom simply say that it is "ridiculous"?
