Do Teenagers Really Need a Mobile Phone?

Nowadays, mobile phones are becoming an extremely popular electronic for people.
They are also becoming more technologically sophisticated; most can take and
share pictures and videos and connect to the Internet for web surfing. Many
teenagers are becoming cell phone owners, however. It’s debatable whether a
teenager actually needs a mobile phone, but mostly they will say that a phone was
essential to their happiness and social standing. Without a mobile phone, the
average teenager is unable to function–they can’t talk to their friends and life just
isn’t worth living. But before you give in and rush off to buy your petulant teenager a
brand new iPhone, read the following list.

One of the reasons of letting a teenager have a mobile phone is because one way of
making a teenager do exactly what you want is by using a combination between
bribery and blackmail. They will do what you want easily if you offer to put more data
on their mobile phone. Second reason is that mobile phone can also be an excellent
way of staying in touch with a teenager when they are away from home. Third, many
cell phones enable the teenager to access internet. By using this feature, teenagers
can obtain answers to questions very quickly and easily. The last, if a teenager has
a mobile phone, they can use it to call for help in a sticky situation for some reason.
In such condition, having a cell phone handy could be a lifesaver.

In spite of having some advantages, letting teenagers have a mobile phone has also
some disadvantages. First, cheating can be done more easily by using mobile phone
since students can search or text the answers under their desks during tests.
Second, mobile phones can be very distracting from some important activities in a
child’s life such as studying, doing homework, or even crossing the street. Third,
sexual content which can be accessed easily is also an issue for parents to consider
before giving a mobile phone for their child.

Everything must have its good and bad effect, and mobile phone must too. We need
to be wise to use such a sophisticated technology in our lives. As parents, we can
set guidelines for our children on when they are able to use their cell phones or give
a suitable phone for their age so that we can get more advantages from purchasing
a mobile phone for our children.
 Benefits and Disadvantages of Falling in Love

Have you ever felt in love? How does it feel? Does love provide many benefits or
disadvantages? Some people think that Love provides many benefits in life. But some say
that Cinya has many disadvantages in life. Both of these are certainly in a romance.

Falling in love provides several benefits such as having someone who will continue to be on
your side, having someone who always supports you, having an interesting life, having
someone who can share your life experiences, having a pleasant and colorful life. Besides
falling in love will also provide benefits both for the mental and physical of a person so that
they are motivated to do better things to make him proud.

Besides falling in love will also give you some losses. As for the disadvantages such as the
feeling of being trapped and limited in a matter. This is because there are differences in the
percentage in the two people who make love. Besides that love also produces an expectation
that can later disappoint. Because love you can sometimes lose enthusiasm or drop in
continuing life. This is what makes falling in love become dramatizing in a life.

Love will always have a positive or negative impact. But this love relationship can be
controlled with wise and maturity. You can feel love every time, but don't commit if you can't
control those feelings so that you don't dramatize in love.
 Are death sentences permissible?

Until July 2016, the Indonesian people carried out acts of execution of several people. The
death sentence was given to people involved in drug trafficking, espionage, treason and other
crimes. The death execution raises many pros and cons. Are capital punishment in Indonesia
permissible?

This act of execution has caused many supporters because according to him this action saves
more ordinary than life imprisonment, as a tool in enforcing the law and can prevent the
existence of crime. There is even a saying that "the eye is returned to the eye". That way the
victims' families can be more relieved, respect the victims and provide legal certainty to the
perpetrators so that in the future there will not be anything like that.

But the act of execution also raises many opponents of the law because the criminals will be
more challenged and not deterred from the crimes they committed. That way there will be a
rebellion against the government. Even worse, they will commit crimes against certain people
who cannot afford a lawyer or are addressed to certain people. In his opinion, life
imprisonment is better than the death sentence.

It can be concluded that the death penalty decision raises many pros and cons in the
community. Some argue that the death penalty will solve the problem of crime. But there are
those who argue that the death penalty will make social law unfair.
 Pros and Cons of Abortion

Do you agree with abortion? When someone asks this to the people, there may be
many “yes” and equal number of “no”, voicing their opinion over this. Abortion has
always been a debatable subject amongst the masses as people have their own
arguments regarding it.

For those who are for, they think that sometimes life can be really harsh on us. In
some cases, medical emergencies make a woman resort to this action because
there is a possibility to be at risk, if she delivers the child. In some other cases, some
of the rape victims can be minors. They won’t be mentally or physically prepared to
have the newborn baby. Giving life to such an unwanted child may cause troubles for
both mother and the child.

After all, abortion implies denying someone a well-deserved life. Just because the
odds are not in our favor, can we deprive someone the chance to live? Besides,
having an abortion done also carries the risk of not being able to become pregnant
ever again in life. Abortion can also lead to serious health complications or even a
death.

Whether you agree or not, abortion will always happen in our society. While for one,
having a forced child can be a highly miserable experience, to the other, abortion
can be a highly miserable experience.
 School Uniforms Policy

School uniforms are uniforms which are obligatory worn by the students in the school
or any other educational institution. School uniforms tell many things such as
students' grade level and school or institution identity. Nowadays, school uniforms
become a debatable issue among parents. Some of them think that school uniforms
are necessary, while others think that they are not.

Some parents believe that school uniforms will make such good advantages to their
children while learning at school. First, school uniforms can keep students focused
on their education, not their clothes. Second, school uniforms may improve
attendance and discipline. The last, school uniforms are a symbol that every student
is equal in getting same education. School uniforms will not differentiate whether the
students are rich or not and students’ economic or social class.

In other hand, school uniforms can affect negatively on students psychology and
performance in learning at school. First, school uniforms restrict students' freedom of
expression. Second, uniforms also may have a detrimental effect on students' self-
image because when students have to wear the same outfits, rather than being
allowed to select clothes that suit their body skin, they can suffer embarrassment at
school. Third, some students also find uniforms less comfortable than their regular
clothes, which may not be conducive to learning.

In conclusion, school uniforms remain important of the students’ forsakes. Students

will be discipline and will focus more on learning. School uniforms also will show
them that they are equal in learning. However, to cover all disadvantages of school
uniforms, it is better if school gives a free school uniform day to the students on
certain days and with certain themes.
 Pros and Cons of Smoking Bans

Smoking ban policies are implemented in some American states and cities but the
contentions on whether they are necessary and relevant are still heard from
supporters and critics. Restrictions on cigarette smoking can be traced back as early
the 16th century and up to now, this issue remains to be controversial. To get an
idea on how people are taking smoking bans, here are some of the views expressed
by proponents and opponents.

Advocates for smoking bans claim that passing a policy to prohibit smoking in public
places can lessen the possibility of second-hand smoke being inhaled by non-
smokers. The supporters also say that states and cities which have non-smoking
policies and prohibited smoking in restaurants and public indoor spaces have better
indoor air quality then the cities which still allow smoking public. With restricting
smoking, supporters posit that it will decrease the waste since there will be lesser
cigarette butts and lesser toxic garbage that can be stuck in water systems. It is also
believed by the supporters that it can lessen the chance of influencing others to take
on the habit.

For many smokers, smoking bans is one of the government’s ways of interfering in
their lifestyle. They find this offensive because they believe that, since smoking is not
a crime, the government nor anyone else should not have a say about what they do
and limit their freedom. In principle, smoking bans aren’t effective since they will
make people just avoid places with smoking bans and smoke elsewhere rather than
to quit or at least to reduce their tobacco consumption. Implementing smoking bans
also can be very difficult. There are many people and even establishments that don’t
respect the ban mainly because the penalties aren’t so stiff and won’t get offenders
into too much trouble.

These are just some of the pros and cons of smoking bans. Government officials,
business owners, and ordinary citizens should weigh them carefully to decide if
smoking bans are worth implementing or not.
