Obsessed: Greg Hardesty was shocked to see his daughter Reina's 440-page cellphone bill</td></tr></tbody></table>An American teenager sent about 470 text messages a day last month, leaving her father with a phone bill of 440 pages. Reina Hardesty (13) sent 14,528 SMSes in December at an average of a message every two minutes if she was awake for 15 hours each day. Her father, Greg, said he was shocked to receive a 440 page phone bill last month. "First, I laughed. I thought, 'That's insane, that's impossible'," said Hardesty. "And I immediately whipped out the calculator to see if it was humanly possible. Then I thought maybe AT&amp;T made some mistake on the bill." He asked his daughter, "Who are you texting, anyway? Your entire school?" Reina said she messaged a core group of "four obsessive texters" all girls between the ages of 12 and 13. "Well, a lot of my friends have unlimited texting. I just text them pretty much all the time," she said. At a birthday party, Reina texted her best friend, who was sitting next to her. She also SMSed friends to brag about the high number of text messages she had racked up. Good news Fortunately for her parents, Reina's phone plan allows unlimited texting for $30 (Rs 1,454) a month. Otherw-ise the bill would have been about $2,900 (Rs 1.4 lakh). Reina's parents have since placed restrictions on her phone use, forbidding her from texting after dinner.
