Welcome to Gaia! ::

I have a cellphone and it is some virgin mobile flip phone (it's red and black). I think that cellphones are very convenient. But even though they are good they can be terrible- like for instance people using them while driving which is very stupid and dangerous. Another thing I hate about cellphones is just the fact for some reason parents feel the need to give their children who are in middle school or younger cellphones. At that age a kid should not need a cellphone I mean who are they really going to be or need to be calling? I got my cellphone about a month before freshman year and I was really surprised I got one, but kids that are younger then a freshman don't need a cellphone.

I have an Samsung flip-phone that does what I need it to do (call and text only). Personally, I don't understand why people need a full computer built into their phones.

There may or may not be a good reason for some children to have a cellie... Of course, 911 and their parents' phones should be all that they are allowed to call.
