All this bickering from lazy Americans is funny, when the country i went to school at had 10x times more homework and different classes and stress, but we didn't whine about it. As soon as I graduated, they began doubling the amount of homework because our goverment wasn't pleased with our grades enough. Teen me was jealous of how incredibly easy American schools are, adult me is glad I was challenged because in the long run, it taught me how to handle stress in real life better.

@D. Steven No. I'd say blame the schools. They aren't 100% of the problem, but they are certainly a larger portion of the problem than phones are. Phones help kids learn. It gives them access to knowledge and resources that would have been extremely expensive and difficult to find not only a few decades ago. The real issue is schools not teaching students when and where using phones is appropriate. Don't you think the people who are supposed to prepare us for life and educate us should also teach us some rights and some wrongs that actually apply to real life, such as phone use in class? Locking them up is just lazy, and doesn't make any sense, AND it costs the school more money that they could be using to further improve teaching practices. I think this is an absolutely ridiculous scheme that not only stresses out kids more but prohibits them from learning more.

[@kawaiidere1023]

@D. Steven What about my school? My school had block lunch (fusion of study hall and lunch to open up more options with a longer time block), but recently the principal decided to ban it because "fights." Fights still constantly happen, the change from open ended lunch to closed lunch has only depressed the atmosphere. Or take the bathroom for another example, less than half the bathrooms have soap and many lack even essentials such as the basic dispenser, I keep reporting it to the office like everyone I mention it to says is the right course of action, but it is rarely improved. Or take the low quality food options, every school in the district serves the exact same food, it doesn't even have any slight changes like in shape, color, flavor, appearance, etc. The other day I got an apple, I picked it up and saw what I thought was mold, then since the line was long, put it back to return later. Picked it up after the line was shorter and I ate everything else I bought, turns out it was frost. I have 2nd/3 lunch and the food had frost, it is irrefutably not fresh. Further annoying is the awful internal communication. I have a 504 so I take tests in a different room, one teacher wasn't notified. Speaking of those tests, one day I had a science test, my test was supposed to already be in the testing room, it wasn't. Half the testing time was spent waiting since it was still in the front office despite being planed in advance and some other classmates with 504s went to get it.

Alex Baker Um ok but if there was a school shooting or natural disaster they would not be able to contact there love ones before they die. My dad died when I was 7 and I wish I could’ve told him how much I loved him but I never knew and the next thing I knew there was an ambulance and my nan told me and my brothers my dad was dead. So yes I do think teens should not be on there phones but just in case let them keep them so that there parents hear it from their child can tell them and not a police office

we aren't depressed because of cell phones. we're depressed because of climate change, discrimination, bullying, abuse, body issues, the political climate, the ever-looming threat of nuclear war, the broken school system, etc. cell phones help us communicate with like-minded people and get our thoughts out in non-destructive ways.

@@StylixDS I wasn't saying that the point is I think parents should have more control over their children's cell phone use at school and all times because the parents pay the bill they should cut the internet ,limit the text messages ,and phone calls during school hours the students should be allowed to contact parents and emeracy numbers during school hours and as well texted the students are so disrespectful to the teachers that's one of the reason I don't buy my son a phone his not going disrespect his teacher or any adult at his school I send my son to school to learn not waste time and teachers have the right to kick them out of the class if they don't listen because of the cell phone use and a cell phone for a teen is not a nassary thing compared to their education

The problem is REALLY BAD in the UK 1 in 4 kids have depression because of school but adults don't realise THEIR system is what's wrong they just blame phones because they didn't have them. THEY don't realise how hard schools gotten and how hard it is to get a job. Just because it was easier 30 years ago and there was no phones does not mean they're the problem.

[@streamd-2149]

Exactly! I'm only in Year 8 and some people say "Oh you won't get any pressure just enjoy it" how can I enjoy it when I get so much homework and the teachers always pressure us. Just because we are young it's almost like we aren't able to get pressured or become depressed is what annoys me so much. Teaches just don't listen to us and whenever we have something wrong they blame it on the phones not the excessive amount of homework we get, tests every week, pressure to move up a set or if you are in the top set you have to do the hardest things always and have nothing explained to you because for some reason that automatically means you understand everything. It's so stressful and I understand our work isn't as difficult as GCSE but that's because we haven't learnt the things they have yet and sometimes we do GCSE things (especially in Science) causing us to stress out and feel like a failure if we don't understand it. Schools just don't listen to what we say. Our school doesn't even have enough money for paper and our teacher said that if we wrote on the test paper (the paper with the questions) we would have to pay her £10. It's honestly rediculous.

ForcedNacho 44 do you think having a more healthy relationship with technology, knowing when to step away, etc, would help that panic feeling? Because, I think why you’re feeling is the point of this. More young adults/school-aged kids are feeling more panicky because of the phones. Studies show that having that constant stream of technology actually causes panicking more often. Idk. I hope it gets better for you, dude. Sending my support.
