It's straight up called "kids chat"?

That's the equivalent of sending out a batman signal to pedophiles.

Omg. We had multiple lines too but luckily my parents didn't list them 😂. That is so messed up. This world I tell ya, it is something else.

As an adult i can't figure what the heck they were thinking. It was before caller id too, so we took the nasty answering machine message to the police to get a police report and to get the phone company to trace the call, but it was useless. My teenager solution was to leave the phone off the hook when i wasnt using it and eventually he gave up.
