I don't know about you, but I value having good communication with my kids!
I have a son in college and there were times prior to my getting him a pager,
that I had a miserable time getting ahold of him if I needed to.  I realize
that at 18, he is grown (or at least HE will tell you he is <BG>) but there
are still times when I need to get ahold of him when plans change.  This has
proved to be even more true for my daughter who is still in High School and
relies totally on her parents to get around.  She is in every extra-curricular 
activity they offer and times and plans of when and where to pick her up often
change.  If my schedule changes and I need to make other arrangements, I beep 
her!  If her plans change, she beeps me!  This is much better than getting to
the school only to find out that the practice is going to run over an extra
hour, so I can sit and cool my heels!  Thank God for modern technology - it
makes this busy mother's life a lot easier!

As far as pagers, kids, and drugs - well, if a kid is going to wear a pager
to sell drugs, then he probably has the money to buy one anyway!  I doubt very
much that his PARENTS are going to take advantage of this person's offer of
a free pager to give it to their children so they can sell drugs!  Get real!
Why are you hasselling someone on a newsgroup full of ads for posting an ad
that will be of real benefit to many who will take advantage of it!  If YOU
choose not to take advantage of it, then that's on you, but why try to make
it look like something it's not by trying to connect pagers and drugs - a lot
more people than drug dealers use pagers!!!!  Geez!   

Given the subject, just why would I want to buy my kid a pager.  Having a 
pager is a big fad among high school students.   Many kids are carrying a pager
to facilitate their drug sales.

Lets justify the need for the pager by children.
