What do you think the most persuasive argument in the editorial about students texting at school is and why?

here's the story
Editorial: Let high school students use their cell phones outside class
Schools all over the nation are acknowledging that technology is a large part of students’ lives. While most schools continue to ban texting and calling during class time, some schools are allowing students to call and text in-between classes.

Students have been doing this in secret for a long time. Allowing students to use their phones between classes will cut down on this behavior.

Additionally, most parents want the option of being able to contact their child between classes during the school day. Cell phones have become an important parenting tool.

Sure, some people will say that students should be able to be “phone-free” during the school day, but that is probably not realistic in this day and age. If schools can help children and parents communicate without disrupting class, all the better! Let kids go mobile at school!
