Young Children Should Not Have Their Own Cell Phone Because of Several Reasons
Young children should not have their own cell phone because of several reasons. First,
children are too young to use their own cell phone. I think, they do not have the ability to control
how to use it in the right way and at the right time. Particularly, based on my own experience, I
have seen many young children insist to play on their phone rather than to eat their meal. To add
more, many of them enjoy watching what they like than what they have to watch. Second,
according to the study has shown that cell phone really affects children’s physical and mental
health. Doctors say that the light from the screen of any cell phone can cause serious eye problems,
especially for young children who pay too much attention with it. It makes their eyes red and
maybe they cannot see well in the near future. Additionally, spending too much time with cell
phone keeps children away from others people and makes them passive. Many children, who are
using cell phone usually don’t like to relate with their surroundings. With this issue, their mental
mind and physical body will grow slowly. Last but not least, cell phone affects their attitude due
to bad aspects from social media. Some children try to imitate what they have seen on their cell
phone such as repeating rude words, following crazy dance, and sometimes they possibly follow
bad videos like violent or sexual videos. To my points of view, I strongly agree that young children
should not have their own cell phone because of these bad effects.
