Man! That sucks... we have been wanting to GET a landline so daughter can talk to her friends and I don't have to hand over my phone. And for emergencies to dial 911, etc. But our friends got a landline for the purpose, and they have their ancient rotary phone hooked up to it but never pick up the phone for the same reasons. gah. So, the reasons you shared we have been postponing it a few years now!!
We did have Vonage that was a VOIP but acted like a landline, but that also was an additional expense. The kids have become so used to video calls though, so maybe it's late to get it now.
