About the only thing she could do would be to use a service like Google Voice, which will give her a phone number she can use from the Google Voice app on her iPad she can use for VoIP calls and SMS messages.


As for the kids, you'd have to ask them. If their lines are provisioned properly, there's no reason they shouldn't be getting your messages.
