if that's the way you react to a kid pranking you, let me tell you I'd prank you too as you sound like lots of fun!

In Idaho there is a service called *69. It gives you the number of the last caller.
We also have *57 (in case the last caller blocked his number.) *57 costs $2 each time you press it, but the phone company does a run on the line and they record subsequent calls from that given number. 3 or more calls of harassment and the phone company prosecutes the little phuckers, you not having to do anything besides lift the phone.
I'd call and see if your phone company offers something like that. Odds are they do, if we have it in backwoods idaho.
(My uncle had the phone company prosecute his ex wife. That's how I know this exists.)

call the phone company, when a number is dialled, they send the phone number twice, one you see or don't see (call display ) the second is called an "ANI" sounds line "Annie"
they strip this information off before the call is complete, used for tracing number and billing.
Call the phone company, and tell them you are getting abusive numbers, they may charge you for this service, and as soon as the that person calls, call their special number, they will trace the number, and forward it to the police, they cannot give you the number due to privacy laws ( sucks I know), they will have a officer call them or visit their home. or even have their phone suspended if other complaint are logged

Call the phone company. They can track the person down and block the call. Hopefully the person won't catch on and start calling from another phone, though.

What do you mean you can't track? Today there is caller ID, and the last I knew if you dial *69 it will go back to the last number that called you.

Call the Springfield phone company and have caller id installed on your phone, Moe.

Maybe get a different phone number or u can pick up and then hang up really quickly, but make sure it is him and not a customer or something

*69 to call the last caller back. Does that still work? Worth a try.

As soon as the kid says something, blow a whistle in the phone and give his ears a blast.

Can't you Star-Six-Nine after he calls to get his number? Then try calling in the evening when his parents might be at home and fill them in.
