Whether the children should be allowed to use the phones in school or not, is an ongoing debatable issue in many societies. Some citizens oppose the idea of allowing childrens using mobiles, while many are the proponent of giving phones access to people regradless of age even to children. I would like to take strong side towards the former notion.
To begin with the opinion of banning adolescents from using phones, there are certain reasons that the proponents of this idea consider. Firstly, mobile phone is alucrative technology for every age groups. This is even more true for juveniles. When they get this in their hand, there is high possibility that they can misuse it. It may harm their concetration to study. Moreover, they can be exposed to many dangerous incidents due to imprudent use of phones. It was observed in various school surveys that youngters are addicted to pornograpgy via the smartphones. This in turn has the unhealthy consequences in their life and society.
On the other hand, many people explain that, children should use mobile in schools to learn the modern communication system witg their peers and the family. It can provide some relief to the parents as they can get instant information about the situation of their kids. This can prevent them from being lost which happened many times in the past. Additionally, some believers of this idea feel that, adolescents should learn how to use phones wisely that can help in their study and in real life. If they are deprived of phones, they will not get this experience which may make them feel lagged behind in the long run.
Summing up, we are in the era of fast growing technology. Technology has both pros and cons, but it completely depends on the user. Mobile phone is definitely an useful tool for every age group, but reckless use of this technology may make someone vulnerable to unexpected incident that may destroy the whole life. Children should concentrate on study during school day. In our experience, we did not feel any necessity of using phones when we were in schools. Their might be other solutions to the problems which are generally concerned by the proponent of allowing mobiles to the youngsters. Mobile should be resitricted to use until a certain age group.
