How Young Is Too Young For An iPhone?

In our recent generation many people have iPhones, or any sense of electronic and such young ages. “A recent survey found that 38 percent of children under 2 had used mobile devices like iPhones, tablets or Kindles,” (The Learning Network). Is there a certain age people should be able to obtain cellular devices?

Some people intend that children having devices young is just a sense of entertainment. Is this really the case though? A recent study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that pressing a cell phone to the ear for 50 minutes altered the brain activity in 47 adult volunteers. So with this, imagine what it does to adolescents or toddlers. Studies also show that the usage of cellphones can cause cancer within people due to the radiation beaming off the screen.

Young people using iPhones is a risk due to it teaching younger kids things at an early age. Most young people now are more mature in the wrong ways due to what they witness upon the internet. This is caused by cellphones. There should be a stricter limit upon cell phone users due to the fact that social media can cause a frenzy upon others.
