text: Cars are really dangerous anyway, and hard to control sometimes, and adding a phone in that equation doesn't make sense. Some people do drugs they are illegal, but it's a matter of not caring, and being addicted. That's kind of the same thing about the texting and driving. Some people just don't care, and some just are too addicted to get off of it while they are driving. I'm not saying I am a perfect angel myself because I have been on my phone while I've been driving before but I don't do it often, because I know what it can do and cause, and that's not what I want at all.    Did you ever work on yearbook, play a sport, or serve on student council? These are all extracurriculars that could be provided at your school. Students should have to participate in at least one extracurricular activity because it helps with college prep, helps with stress, and doesn't take much time.
