Some parents think children have mobile phones others disagree. Discuss both sides and give your opinion

Smartphones

are becoming common among children. While some parents think their infants should have

this

kind of technology, I believe

this

is inadequate for youngsters.

This

essay will discuss both views and explain my arguments. On the one hand, some parents believe that they should allow their children to have

smartphones

because their colleagues

also

have. According to those parents, it is a mean of communication between their friends.

For example

, they can use massages apps to stay in touch with friends.

Additionally

, they believe that

such

technology can be used for learning purposes. There are some great resources and possibilities with

this

technology.

For example

, their children can use

smartphones

to develop homework and learn different subjects.

On the other hand

, I believe that

this

trend is making children less interested in other important activities,

such

as sports and reading . As they spend a lot of time texting with friends and playing games, they are not addicted to physical activities and reading books.

Furthermore

,

although

smartphones

can be a significant mean of learning, if parents do not watch what kind of content their youngsters are consuming, they will be exposed to harmful contents. Some children,

for instance

, learn inappropriate words and even spend their parents' money. To sum up,

smartphones

have become a trend among children.

Although

some parents believe their infants should have one, in my opinion, parents should not allow them to use. Cellphones should be given by parents when their children become adolescents and,

then

, more conscious about what they are doing.
