Should mobile phones be allowed at school
Nowadays mobile phones are becoming more and more popular among middle school students. But people have different opinions about whether mobile phones should be allowed at school or not.
Everything has two sides and mobile phone is not an exception，it has both advantages and disadvantages. Some students hold the opinion that they should take their mobile phones to school, which bring them conveniences. First, they can learn about the world and the latest information in time. Second, it's convenient for them to communicate with their parents and friends. Moreover, they can surf the Internet at any time in any where to get the message they want to know. However, others are against using phones at school, as they think students get addicted to phones easily, especially playing on-line games. Spending too much time on phones has bad effect on their study, whilch may also influences their sleep and does harm to their eyesight.
As far as I am concerned, middle school students have a weak self-control, mobile phone does more harm than good, so it shouldn't be allowed at school.
