All cell phones have alarms. It would take roughly the same amount of effort for the kid to call the service and set up the wake up day/times as it would to set the alarm on the same phone.

They should quit and make room for those more deserving.<br /><br />By "more deserving", I mean those intelligent enough to get up on time.
