Texting Teenagers
When most teenagers are at school, they tend to text. They will text all day if they know they are good at hiding their phones. This event accures everyday until they are caught. Some will get their phones back and still tend to text. What they are not taking into account is that this affects how you learn, the information you need, and your grades. Others who actually care, will pay attention and not text. Parents do not help if they just give you some speech and give you your phone back. If the student wants to graduate, then pay attention. If they don't, then what are you doing in school? Don't stop other students' learning for a teacher to catch you and get yourself into trouble. PUT THE PHONE AWAY! I once heard, "If there's a switch on it, it must be turned OFF". Have some respect for not only yourself and put the phone away. Save your brain!
