Finally, some common sense is coming back to our schools. Twenty-two states have now banned or restricted cellphones in classrooms this year alone. Parents across America are cheering as educators wake up to what we’ve known all along.
These so-called smartphones are nothing more than dopamine dealers targeting our kids. They hook children on endless scrolling and mindless videos while destroying their ability to focus and learn. Our students can’t even hold a conversation without staring at a screen.
The results speak for themselves when schools go phone-free. Kids start talking to each other again instead of burying their faces in devices. Their grades improve and classroom disruptions drop dramatically. Teachers can actually teach instead of fighting for attention against TikTok and Instagram.
Liberal politicians spent years telling us these devices were essential learning tools. What a joke that turned out to be. Meanwhile, our children’s mental health crashed and test scores plummeted as social media addiction took hold in every classroom across America.
States like New York and Georgia are leading the charge with smart policies that put learning first. They’re requiring students to store phones away from bell to bell during the school day. No more sneaking peeks at Snapchat during math class or cyberbullying in the hallways.
The tech giants won’t like losing their grip on our kids during school hours. Too bad for them because parents are finally fighting back against the digital invasion of childhood. We’re reclaiming our schools from Silicon Valley’s profit machine.
This movement proves that when parents and teachers unite, we can protect our children from harmful influences. We don’t need fancy studies to know that constant screen time is damaging young minds. Common sense tells us everything we need to know.
More states need to follow this example and ban these distraction devices from every classroom. Our kids deserve schools focused on education, not entertainment. It’s time to give childhood back to our children and put learning where it belongs.
