The use of mobile phones should be banned in public places like libraries and shops. Agree or disagree?

#phones #places #libraries #shops
Nowadays, mobile
phones
 have become an inevitable part of life. Some people believe that they should be restricted in public
places
such
 as libraries, shops and public vehicles. I agree with
this
 notion and I will explain why.
Firstly
, public
places
 are usually expected to be quiet and peaceful so that they are acceptable to everyone and the use of mobile
phones
 in
such
places
 are likely to disrupt the desirable working environment.
For instance
, in a library, where people are pondering over the books, the constant mobile ringtones or the phone conversation will be intrusive or irritating.
Secondly
, the use of mobile
phones
 for luring activities
such
 as
facebook
Change the capitalization
Facebook
show examples
 chatting, taking pictures, playing games, listening to songs and so on can prove to be undesirable in public
places
. It is quite noticeable that these days, teenagers are taking pictures everywhere, at libraries, hospitals,etc… which is a matter of annoyance. For these reasons, restrictions on mobile
phones
 in public
places
 would prove to be useful in creating a sense of comfort in public. In conclusion,
although
 the merits of mobile
phones
 are numerous, it would be a good decision to ban them in public
places
 as it would create a sense of comfort and a harmonious environment for all.
