All children should have a cellphone
Opinion:
All children should use a cellphone to keep in touch with their family.
Reason:
Children should have a cellphone because lots and lots of children are getting lost. We need help and cellphones will let the children call their families for help if they are lost or in danger.
Evidence:
Children have been loosing their parents when walking or running or in shopping malls and they aren't getting any help. Some children are getting into real danger.
Opinion:
So come on parents get your child a cellphone!!!
