Cell Phone Effects Essay

 Now I know that many people have cell phones, some use them for positive reasons such as the internet and some use them for bad reasons such as prank calls and bullying.I do believe that everyone needs a cell phone, but only to use for good reasons like calling a friend or family member, cell phones were not made to start drama with others.Cell phones have affected many peoples lives by making them anti-social and causing injuries due to texting and driving.
 When I was seven years old I would always go outside and played basketball or go hang out with some friends until I got my first cell phone.I was so excited to get one it had games, music, and great knowledge for school, but my family noticed that me and my friends barely ever hung out anymore, I was becoming anti-social.For example when people are at home texting they never want to stop texting which affects their friendships and depending on the situation it can ruin marriage or even family relationships.In addition when a high schooler gets home from school they just want to relax and forget about the horrible,horrible no good very bad day at school which causes them not to wanna go anywhere, if cell phones werent grabbing someone everytime they tried to leave they could be at the movie theaters with some friends or eating out with family.Cell phones are one of the most popular inventions, millions of people own a cell phone but this wonderful invention isn’t so wonderful when you are at a dinner table with your crush but she never looks up at you.
 Thousands of people die every year due to texting and driving.They get a text and instead of waiting until their safe at their house they pull their phone out unaware that there’s a red light and Bam!They lose a limb, beak a bone, or sometimes die.Cell phones can cause many people to swerve into a ditch, hit a tree ride off a hill etc…Although many people do text and drive others could be looking for an app or talking to someone on the phone making them lose concentration of the road.Cell phones can also get you in trouble during class such as if you are in a mean teachers class and your friend is on his phone and you go to look up what he/she is watching and you dont pay attention to the lesson that the teacher is teaching.
 Therefore phones were made to be used for knowledge and communication with friends or family.Many people tend to use them cheat on tests and homework assignments and others use their cell phones while driving, so remember next time you are driving dont text while driving, you might be in a hospital that night/day.
