People seem to be missing the fact that kids not paying attention in class isn't caused by cell phones. It's caused by classes being f*cking boring. Cell phones are just one of many different ways kids choose to occupy their minds during class. Before cellphones, kids had other distractions, like pot, drawing pictures of the gym teacher with a [censored] in his ear, and even good old fashioned daydreaming.
