On the one hand, I think students should not be allowed to have their cell phones in middle and high school because it’s too easy for them to get distracted by social media. On the other hand, they are a helpful way for kids to get in touch with their parents during a crisis. be that as it may, it is still a nuisance when phones go on in the middle of a lesson.

A 2010 Pew Research Center survey found that 65% of teens who own cell phones bring their phones to school despite any bans that may be in place. Nowadays, most schools allow students to have cell phones but require them to be turned off during class, as they can be annoying and distracting.

To put it in a nutshell, there are many pros and cons regarding kids and mobiles.
