There are some bad cell phone habits that can have serious social, academic, health, and legal consequences. So, it is important and necessary to educate your teen about unhealthy habits. Here are some bad habits that teens need to stop:
Talk on the phone in quiet public areas. Make sure that your teen knows it is not OK to talk on the phone in theaters, libraries, waiting rooms, or other quiet public areas.
Stare at their phones for hours. Many people--not just teens--are spending their days mindlessly scrolling through news feeds and social media accounts. So set healthy limits on your teen's cell phone use so he can enjoy real world experiences.
Make private conversations public. The whole world doesn't need to know about the latest drama among your teen's friends or the most recent family issue you've been experiencing. Tell him to go to a private area if he must continue a phone conversation.
Take unsuitable pictures. Unfortunately, that can often lead to taking selfies in dangerous places. Talk to your teen about the dangers of taking and sharing unsuitable photos.
The rules about smartphone use in the classroom vary from school to school. Regardless of your school's policies, cell phone use during school can serve as a major distraction. Talk to your teen about turning his phone off during the school day so he won't use it.
A. Use the phone during school.
B. Ignore the people around them.
C. Don't allow your teen to use digital devices during mealtimes.
D. Talk to your teen about the importance of being respectful to others.
E. As a result, they're missing out on everything going on around them.
F. Teach your teen to speak quietly on the cell phone when others are nearby.
G. Smartphone cameras mean teens can take photos almost anywhere anytime.
