Just have the nanny state get deeper into our lives. Maybe an IQ test should go along with that service contract?. Wait, we can't even get that as a requirement for a driver's license, parenthood...
There's another way to look at this, from the perspective of the cell phone company. Many times when users get bills like these they get negotiated down to something much less than what the original is, and the company has to eat the costs.

By putting in a set maximum spending limit (the way other forms of credit already operate) the phone company avoids taking a massive loss from a customer who simply won't pay a multi-thousand dollar bill.
