Do you think it is a good idea to ban the child's use of the phone at night? Having a curfew for the phone will minimize the distraction of the school children so they can have a good night's sleep. This is especially true for high school students who have the propensity of using their phone even at midnight just to chat with their friends. Admit it or not but the phone is a big distraction to the student's focus on his studies.
 
Maybe before, this is effective. Right now, teachers post their assignments and announcements on Facebook so it would be a disadvantage for students if you take away their phones at night. Yes, I do admit that cellphones can hamper a student during study time but it has become a necessity due to the evolution of technology and its effect in our lives.
 
I think everything should come in moderation. The parents should discipline and limit the usage of mobile phones for their children's sake. They should be strict and in authority to imposed rules in their homes. But sometimes this doesn't follow since the parents also are busy doing mobile activity. I think it all comes with discipline.
 
Phone curfew of children at night: For it was needed especially those still in grade school or even in high school students, there should still have a limitation of using a phone for the students in this level because at these age children don't know yet how to manage their time ang might be the reason of lacking of sleep that will result to be not in good condition for the next day class.
 
Yes, it is really a distraction to the students' focus on their studies and deprives their sleep, which causes detrimental effects on their brain development and memory. Kids and teens are required to sleep 8 hours of sleep to rejuvenate well and be able to focus and remember what they learned at school. Sleep-deprived students could not concentrate well and grasp the concept being taught to them because their brain is sleepy and unable to function well in receiving information. So, phone curfew is a good rule that parents need to implement.
 
Curfew of phone for children can be advantageous at time specially for small children. This is to help them focus more on physical activities by limiting their time on gadget usage. However this shouldn't be applied on students of higher age as they often use their gadgets to socialize which is a vital part of growing up. Also gadgets and technology advancement is a great help for students in their academics by using it for assignments and projects.
 
Yes definitely. It removes the temptation to be online and play when they should be resting and the light from the phones is proven to disturb our deep restorative sleep patterns.
