Children and cell phones
Kids today, I'm talking about 10-year-olds, have convinced their parents that they desperately need cell phones. And not just any cell phones! They need unlimited 'texting' options, internet access, mp3 downloading capabilities and more. Granting kids free access to too much information through the cell phones can be harmful. If they can't handle it responsibly they shouldn't be accessing it in the first place. We live in a very difficult and sometimes dangerous world. It is very easy for the children to receive text messages and pictures that the parents may not approve of. Along with that, cell phones pose serious health hazards to the children. Sometimes eve-teasing starts with a simple phone call to a teen.
