Yet another Puget Sound parent was hit with a whopping cell phone bill. A Covington woman was shocked to receive a $4,418 statement for two months of charges, according to this KING TV story. The reason? She didn’t know her son was using the phone to access the Internet.

Talk about it:Does your kid have a cell phone? How do you regulate use? What tips can you provide other parents?
