I never insinuated that you said that. You keep strawmanning and shifting goalposts.
I'm not opposed to requiring kids to not have their phones out in class. What I'm opposed to is a child not having access to their own property, for the listed reasons, because some teachers can't manage their students.
You said to give you one reason kids need access to their phones in class. I gave you three, and your response is "I didn't say they can't have them ever!!" No one said that to begin with.
I haven't shifted any goalposts. My original post had nothing to do with school violence. I was mentioning that there's no need for middle schoolers to be fooling around on Tiktok and other social media during class. Period.
And I agree. So why do you support completely disabling a child's phone? This prevents them from potentially receiving family emergency calls, having access to 911 during emergencies, and using the device itself as a learning tool.
Where did I say I agree with disabling a child's phone?
Ffs your first comment is "To those who oppose this:" and then your ridiculous challenge. If you're not in support of the linked article in the OP, why the fuck are you even commenting?
I'm not allowed to say they're disruptive and can create a hostile environment at times?
Have you ever worked in a classroom environment before?
Irrelevant if I have. I'm done wasting time on this. You commented some nonsense and I gave you three examples. No more to discuss.
Ok, we can end it here.
It's a bit relevant if you want to understand why phones can be problematic for teachers though. Kids can get up to some real inappropriate junk with them. Good news is Go Guardian exists, so teachers can monitor their Chromebook use during class at least.
I don't support banning them from schools completely for the record. And I didn't write the bill.
Have a nice night.
