Some people believe that children should be banned from using their phones during the school day. Others believe that children should be allowed to use their phones. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

Mobile

phones

are widely used by human beings irrespective of their age. School-going

children

and youngsters are fond of using

phones

for both study purposes and entertainment.

However

, some parents restrict their young ones from using

phones

due to their adverse effects. The pros and cons of

phone

usage among

children

can be discussed as follows. On the one hand, overexposure to

phone

screens can adversely affect the

children

's eyesight and the youth become prone to vision issues at their younger age itself.

In addition

to the health issues, watching improper content, for ,instance terrorist attacks or blood-spattered streets

can keep spectators mentally down. They may even enter a stage of trauma or depression.

Moreover

, the young generation is not matured enough to discriminate between the contents or the programs that are actually good for them. In fact, it is always not possible to provide parental guidance and check throughout the day what contents

children

watch on their

phones

. Due to these reasons parents, especially dual-income families, prohibit their kids from using mobile gadgets are they already leading a hectic life.

On the other hand

,

phones

can be utilized for gathering educational information and for watching animated videos that convey the topics of the curriculum in a better manner.

In addition

, some families may not be able to afford highly paid gadgets like iPad or laptops. In

such

cases, they come up with

phones

that can meet the primary needs of a student. The

phone

has become a necessary study material once after the outbreak of the pandemic. Most of the educational institutions provided online lectures and tutorials through online platforms to surpass the crisis faced in the education field due to the spread of COVID-19.

Additionally

,

phones

can be used to ensure the security of

children

.

For example

, in India, guardians allow students to keep the

phone

along with them if they stay late in schools or tuition centres for special classes. In my opinion, mobile

phones

can be provided to the students if it is an inevitable situation.

Furthermore

,

children

can be allowed to utilize the applications and features if they can help in their academic development.

However

, parents should have control over

phone

usage to ensure the safety of their

children

.
