text: Banning cell phones from school would be very unfair to those who always follow the rules and deserve the cell phone use. Many teachers respond to that with, "Well one bad apple ruins whole bunch," and that is not necessarily fair. We are a new generation and old sayings such as that one might be ready for an upgrade. Even if cell phones were banned, though, students would still carry them to and from school. I believe that is because students who get detentions regularly don't care if they get a few more for the sake of their cell phones.
