text: It's hard to believe but not everybody can afford a phone payment. When a poor student sees everybody on their cell phone it makes them feel left out. Studies show, 67% of fighting is caused by jealousy. Nobody likes being made fun of because they don't have the latest "in" clothes and definitely nobody likes being teased of for their lack of a phone. Even if you have a phone it may feel disintegrating when people have the brand new iPhone 4 and you're stuck with your moms ten year old flip phone.
