text: Have your parents ever needed to contact you in a bad predicament? Sometimes accidents happen and your guardians may need to speak with you for your safety. If you will not allow students to have their phones at school they could be put in danger. There have been days I have gotten sick walking home and needed to call my mom to tell her, if I did not have my phone I could not let her know. Sometimes having a cell phone on you is better for your invulnerability or health.
