Give up Peter, as a father of two girls I can tell you can't win this
battle. I put in a second line with an on/off switch so I could disable the
line when I thought it was necessary. My granddaughter has her own cell
phone these days, she sends me text messages.... My Brother has a
Magic-Jack (19.95 a year) and likes it, but you do need to keep a PC on all
the time.

Subject: [Shop-talk] Phone line management
My daughter and her friends are out of control. They use the home
endlessly. I work from home; lots of missed calls, either she
ignores/misses the call waiting or conference calls which disables the
call waiting. I tried to reason with my daughter and it works for about
an hour. I've asked her to explain to her friends I use the phone for
work and they should wait til the evening to call, call once and not do
not keep calling over and over again, to no avail.
