There are billions of people all over the world who use cell phones; they use them for many different reasons, some may use them for calling, or sending text messages, while other people might use them to log onto various forms of social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, in order to see what people have been up to. Typically, there are two types of people when speaking about cellphones. There are the types of people who\u00a0believe that cell phones are very dangerous because they waste time and money can sometimes lead to some sort of addiction, and they are dangerous to the human body. In today’s society, there is a large number\u00a0of people, especially teenagers, who spend hours talking\/texting, which some people believe to be a complete waste of time.<\/p>\n

Those same people also believe that cell phones are a danger to everyone, because they tend to weaken family ties, and don’t allow for families to be \u201cclose\u201d with one another, since everything is done electronically. There is also an existential amount of research all over the internet that talks about how bad cell phones can be for your health. They can cause different types of cancer, and many other health defects in people, especially when your phone is left beside you as you sleep. Although there is more information out there about how and why cell phones are dangerous, myself and many other people disagree with that information. We believe that cell phones are in fact the opposite of dangerous, and instead they are quite helpful and are great technological tools.<\/p>\n

Cell phones are useful in many different situations, but especially when you are out and about, and some sort of accident occurs. Your phone is always right there, and easily accessible to call the police, or whom ever you may need to reach, in a way they allow you to feel more secure, regardless of the situation that you are in.<\/p>\n

Almost everyone today has smart phones which allow you to look up tons of different information with a touch of a button that is definitely a big perk, especially in the sense that most phones now come with GPS Navigation. You no longer need to use big paper maps, instead you have a map of the world that you can carry around with you, wherever you go. Overall, I feel as though cell phones are not dangerous in any sense at all. The pros of having cell phones, very heavily outweigh the cons. Like many other things, they have the ability to be dangerous, depending on how you use them. As long as you use the phones in a smart and responsible manner, they can be one of the most useful tools on the planet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
