Yeah who needs the wheel either? We survived 450,000 years without it. And don’t get me started on paper. Paper can be used to make paper airplanes or spitballs. What a distraction! Kids should chisel their assignments onto stone slates like our ancestors did.
Yeah you’re right. Young children are renowned for their vast attention spans, or at least they used to be before cell phones were invented. Nobody ever passed notes, made paper airplanes, graffitied on their desks, or drew pictures in class prior to 2006.
Well, you see, unlike the wheel/paper/mini computers with built in calculators calendars document editors email and research tools, guns serve no legitimate purpose in a school.
School exists to teach you how to function in society. In our society, like it or not, everyone has a cell phone. Let’s focus on teaching them to integrate this tool into their lives in a productive way.

If wheels could brainwash a kid, completely distract them, and make them throw a tantrum when you take it away then we might have to worry about them.
Except they can, remember fidget spinners?
Literally anything can distract kids and make them throw a tantrum when you take it away. Have you ever met a child?
You’re being purposely obtuse.

I’m a grown ass man and I can barely get off the phone. The kids don’t stand a chance brother.
Perhaps you should get checked for adhd
No, you’re being facetious. Go sit in the corner.
I understand the paper, but why do they need wheels? Why are you leaving out guns?
Carts, busses. There’s wheels in lots of stuff.

Do they not have full sized computers? It’s dubious that there is any legitimate educational value to smartphones in schools either.
