Cell Phones Should Not Be Allowed in School

I wholeheartedly disagree with the statement: “cell phones should be allowed in school.”

Primarily, there is a very strong chance that your phone will get stolen, lost or broken. For example: if I leave my phone on my desk, by accident, someone will probably think ‘free phone’ and take it. Also, you could drop your phone or leave it somewhere where you can’t find it.

Secondly, u could get in2 habit of wrting n txt spk & begin wrting in txt spk n ur book. A habit is hrd 2 break & most people wil not b concentrating so their writing wil b untidy and won’t make sense.

In addition, your phone can be used during class time and effect your education dramatically. It could also ring in class, therefore not only affect your education but could also be disturbing people near you.

Finally, having phones in school will make the owner anti-social. Instead of talking the owner will be texting. Over time you could get fat having cell phones in school because instead of running around and doing exercise you will just be texting on your phone. Also your vocabulary will decline because you won’t read as much.

In conclusion, if phones are allowed in school there is a strong chance they will be stolen, lost or broken,  it wil afect ur wrting, they will affect your education making your chances of getting into a high school slim and, if phones are allowed in school, the owner will become anti-social and you will get fat.

Hopefully, after reading all my arguments, any right-minded individual would agree that cell phones should not be allowed in school. Never.
