So in retrospect, with the question being "If the account owner disables my cellular phone, how can I get it working again?" And the answer is... "Ask the account owner to re-activate it."

I am perfectly comfortable answering the question. No mention of age or moral policing. Should make everyone happy!

I have learned its best to not give a suggestion to a person if I dont want to see them get into trouble from my suggestion...  Even when you dont intend to encourage them to do something wrong, if you suggest a solution a number of users have habits to still try them out.

That's all I am saying..

Yeah, I know, I got it the first time.  Like I said, wasn't my intention, point taken.

Sorry if you took my statement as a jab at you, wasn't meant that way,,,  Also the statement was in general and wasn't really at you.. 

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Honestly, I appreciate you saying that.  Thanks, I know you're just trying to help and inform.  I apologize for getting so defensive as well.
