Nowadays, many
children
 are using mobile
phones
 in our modern world. In my opinion,
this
 has had a harmful effect in three main areas. The first area is using a mobile phone from an early age. Supporters of globalization would argue that using mobile
phones
 is the most convenient way for
parents
 to get relaxed.
While
this
 may be true to some extent, some
parents
 accustom their
children
 to make use of gadgets for a long time.
This
 means that they give them their
phones
 where
children
 can play a variety of games and watch cartoons. It grafts an addiction to
phones
 strongly. If
children
 apply gadgets, they will not distract their
parents
. In consequence, it simplifies
parents
' lives.
This
 brings me to my second point. It is sometimes said that
phones
 help teenagers or
children
 to find the necessary information on the internet for their school projects.
This
 may be true.
However
, the majority of students don't use their
phones
 as a source of information. I would argue that they usually sit on social networks or play games. If
children
 had an addiction to mobile
phones
, they would degrade.
This
 can be seen by the fact that a lot of teenagers don't want to get new knowledge or be interested in something.  
Thirdly
, many
children
 do not have parental control over their
phones
.
For instance
, there can be shown inappropriate videos or pictures with violent content.
This
 has an adverse effect on kids because it may break their psyches. In conclusion, there are many pluses and minuses of globalization and the appearance of mobile
phones
 for the young generation.
Nevertheless
, I believe that
parents
 will encourage their kids to use
phones
 limitedly and rationally.
