Dude, No Kid Uses a Landline Phone Anymore

MI - A heads up for parents! 

Cue theme music.

You might not know it, but you could end up in jail for eavesdropping on your child's conversations from a landline phone.

So many parents might pick up another line in the house to see who their child is talking to, but listening in on a call is a felony punishable by up to two years behind bars and a $2,000 fine.

However, a Republican lawmaker wants to change that. State Representative Peter Lucido (R-Shelby Township), introduced a bill last week that would give parents exemption from the eavesdropping law. more 

Idea! How about a law against loitering in phone booths.
