Some people believe that having a conversation on a mobile phone in a public or crowded place should be banned. Others feel that we should be able to talk wherever we like. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

We live in a world where

 to get in touch anywhere at any time. Still, some believe that restrictions are necessary

, it is possible to create conditions that satisfy both groups.
Firstly
, it’s necessary to clearly distinguish in which
places
 it is undesirable to talk on a mobile
phone
 for objective reasons, since the life and/or health of other
people
 may depend on it.
Such
places
 include

, hospitals, where telephone
communication
 can affect the operation of equipment, or a
conversation
 while driving a motor vehicle. Another important component that directly affects each person is noise and discomfort that can be inflicted on others when talking in already crowded
places
. Indeed, it greatly affects the psychological state of those

 applies to the opposite side. So, there are very serious and decisive moments in life when it’s really important to talk here and now, in which cases there is no other way out how to use mobile

 and in many ways make it easier. At the same time , taking into account the harm and inconvenience caused when talking in public

 and crowded rooms, it is necessary to clearly understand how appropriate and necessary it is to talk in a particular place.
However
, it is not necessary to categorically prohibit talking on the

, it is enough to share opinions about the generally permitted rules of etiquette.
