How to manage the use time of students' mobile phones

With the popularity of mobile phones, children have their first mobile phones earlier and earlier. Some parents are hesitant to buy mobile phones for their children, fearing that their children will get out of control if they overuse them, leading to conflicts between parents and children.

Let's see what American parents have.

Dear Gregory:

Now you are proud to have a mobile phone. You did a good job. You are an excellent and responsible 13-year-old boy and deserve this gift.

But while accepting this gift, you must abide by some rules and regulations.

Please read the following use contract from beginning to end. I hope you can understand that my duty is to cultivate you into a young man with all-round development, physical and mental health and social benefits, so that you can adapt to new technologies and be unaffected by them.

If you can't abide by the following agreement, I will terminate your ownership of this mobile phone.

The first point:

This is my mobile phone. I paid for it. I lend it to you now. Am I great?

The second point:

I must know the password of my mobile phone.

The third point:

If the phone rings, you must answer it, because it is a phone. Answer the phone and say "hello" Be polite.

Never intentionally miss the caller ID just because you are "mom" or "dad". Please don't do this.

The fourth point:

Give your mobile phone to me or your father at 7: 30 pm from Monday to Friday and at 9: 00 pm on weekends. We will turn off the phone and turn it on at 7: 30 the next morning.

The fifth point:

Cell phones can't be taken to school. You should learn to chat face to face with people who contact by SMS, because this is a life skill. If you only attend class for half a day, go out to visit and study, and have extracurricular activities, you can consider it separately.

The sixth point:

If the mobile phone falls into the toilet, falls to the ground or disappears, you have to bear the cost of replacing parts or be responsible for maintenance.

You can do housework, save some pocket money or save some birthday presents. Such a thing is bound to happen, so you should be prepared.

Point seven:

Don't use this high-tech product to deceive, fool and deceive others. Don't say anything that hurts others on the phone. Be a good friend, or simply stay away from disputes.

The eighth point:

Stay away from pornography. When surfing the Internet on my mobile phone, I can only search and browse the information that I can honestly share with you. If you have any questions, you can ask someone else, preferably me or your father.

Point nine:

Turn off your cell phone in public places and put it away, especially in restaurants, cinemas or when talking to others. You are not a rude person, don't let your mobile phone change that.

Point 10:

Don't send or receive pictures of your body or other people's private parts. Don't laugh. Don't think you are smart, you will be tempted to do such a thing one day.

This is very risky and may ruin your middle school, college and even your adult life. This is always a bad idea.

Cyberspace is vast, and its power is far stronger than you think. It is hard for you to leave no trace of any such major event, including a bad reputation.

Eleven o'clock:

Don't take endless photos and videos, there is no need to record everything. Experience life with your heart, and these life experiences will remain in your memory forever.

The twelfth point:

Sometimes you can go out without your mobile phone. Don't feel uneasy when you decide to do so.

A mobile phone is not a living thing, nor is it something that grows on you. You should learn to live without it. Don't always be afraid of what you have missed, but make your heart stronger.

The thirteenth point:

Download some popular, classical or unusual music. Don't listen to the same songs as countless peers.

Your generation has unparalleled convenience in history and can be exposed to all kinds of music. Make good use of this advantage and broaden your horizons.

The fourteenth point:

Don't always stare at your mobile phone, look up, pay attention to what is happening around you, look out the window, listen to birds, take a walk and chat with strangers. Keep a curious heart and don't always use Google to find answers.

Point 15:

Suppose one day you make a mess of your life, then I will take back your mobile phone.

Let's sit down and talk, and then start from the beginning. You and I are both studying. I am your teammate, so let's face it together.
