Parents of growing kids always face the dilemma about buying a cellphone for them. Conflicting views come to their mind considering the fact that technology and social networking tools/gadgets have been associated with negative attitude, poor performance in school results and a general lack of attention in co-curricular activities. On the other hand, in these violent times kids are not safe the moment they step out from their homes, hence having a mobile phone at least guarantees of a quick establishment of contact, in case of an emergency.
