I'm surprised they weren't banned from the get-go
Parents lose their minds if they can’t contact their child at any moment. Some schools/teachers ban them already but I imagine some PTA meetings about this will be total shitshows.
And rightfully so! Every student in school died horribly before cell phones existed.
I mean...American schools do have somewhat of a reputation... I can kinda see why parents would want their child to be able to contact them in an emergency.
I suppose I'd be worried, too, if I was sending my kids to a war zone on a daily basis.
