Things were a lot easier for kids before cell phones were invented. For example, there weren’t distractions like text messages or phone calls during school hours when kids were learning. They never had to worry if a picture they didn’t want posted (like the time I put a ton of marshmallows in my mouth) showed up on social media for everyone to see. However, the scariest issue of kids having cell phones, is cyber bullying. Kids are having to deal with bullying issues because it is easy to text or send an email through a phone and have it delivered to the victim.
