Kids standing around checking phones or kids talking to each other. That the basic choice. The trade off of some small convieneice seems worth while. If hadn't thought about it much, mobile phone didn't exist when I was at school. However I recently visited a school as a prospective parent and they had a strict no phone policy. Locker or lose it. After listening to the principle talk about the problems they had with bullying, distractions, social status, I'm supportive. I can see that not being able to co-ordinate activities could be a non-trivial inconvenience, though.
