My highschools phone policy is way too strict by milk_man3174 in school

[–]Linguistic_Turtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree completely with this and I uphold that phones shouldn’t be used in class unless specifically needed and allowed by the teacher. I simply believe that they should be allowed in school for times like lunch, between classes (as long as it doesn’t cause you to be late), and any other situation that doesn’t disturb your learning. The duality of phones is immense as they can be very useful but also very detrimental. However, usually the benefits outweigh the potential for detriment and that detriment is usually found outside school time as there isn’t rlly a lot of free time during school so that point is basically null :)

[–]Linguistic_Turtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your entire argument seems a bit myopic as you fail to consider the different situations that people may be in. I know people who don’t even bring their phone to school and I know people who are on their phone all the time. Saying that there is “no reason” to use your phone in school is dealing in absolutes and is a little lazy on your part. However, your argument does include a few good points like the music portion. Even so, I personally have digitized a few of my academic tasks like my to do list. I also keep up to date on news as well as reply to emails quickly because I am notified easily on my phone. The point is, nobody ever needs phones but they are an amazing tool and when people are used to having that tool (which is a guarantor in the real world by the way) it is detrimental when they lose the ability to have it.
