Do we really need mobile phones?

Use of cell phones becomes a necessity today’s fast moving world for a large section of the society. But, at the same time we can see a large number of people owning cell phones without any necessity—just for fun and entertainment. They even don’t care for the money they are wasting on buying a cell phone of their choice, because they need a multi-featured cell phone to fulfill their desires.

But is it appropriate to keep a cell phone if we don’t need it for a useful purpose? Surely no, because if we don’t use it for a useful purpose, it will be a total wastage! One can fulfill one’s desire for fun and entertainment with other means and save a lot of money, which can be used for a much needed task.

Even one can not avoid keeping a mobile phone to fulfill his desires, at least one thing one must do that do not change it frequently to own a higher model with a higher price. Frequent change of cell phones is a normal practice in youngsters including school and college going students. One can make a good research while making the first purchase for a cell phone to avoid such a situation.

Parents and elders also have a great role to play in this regard. They can guide their children not to be attracted by the non useful features of a new mobile phone although these are useful for other persons. Or, if the elders or parents think that their child has no need of keeping a mobile phone, they should strictly refuse their children for the same.

Finally, keep a mobile phone only if it is required for a useful purpose and don’t waste hard earned money on it.
