Parents have an extremely heavy responsibility of making sure that their children turn out all right in this world as they enter adulthood, and this can be quite the thankless task. Dena Christoffersen has irked her father’s anger as she actually accumulated a $4,756.25 cell phone bill that also included more than 10,000 text messages sent out. This is partly due to the fact that the family does not have a text messaging plan, and in one instance, Dena sent over 300 texts during the eight-hour school day which also saw her grades plummet from As to Fs. Her dad was so infuriated that he literally hammered the daughter’s handset to smithereens. Without a cell phone, Dena has gotten out of this habit and managed to return to where her grades were before – which is a good thing.
