In Rosemere High School, the popularity of electronics has increased substantially. Sadly, electronics have been forbidden for one simple reason, students are irresponsible, and lose equipment such as IPods and cell phones.
Parents shouldn’t even have to pay such big expenses, for such ridiculous reasons. The only reason a student should possess a cell phone, is in case of an emergency. All other electronics, such as IPods should be left at home.
For many teenagers, simply having an IPod or Cell Phone makes them ''cool'', either by showing off or by texting in class. Anywhere you go in the school; it is guaranteed you will see this technology. Students have integrated electronics, as if they were part of themselves, and obtaining these items has become an addiction. This addiction grows on the owner, and takes slowly takes away their freedom. Students now have concentration problems, and tend to ignore others because they are listening to music or texting their friend. These electronics should be regarded as what they truly are. Abominations.
Well that's your opinion. I have a cellphone and I don't use it at school, nor when people are talking to me because it's not polite. Of course, I agree with you that some students take the use of their cellphones to a higher extent but that doesn't make them an abomination.
