Social Studies Paragraph Question

In Social Studies we have been continuing with the Technology and Change topic. Because of this, one of the topics we have been exploring is phones and teenagers. Of course, this meant we discussed teenagers and phone addictions.

Are students addicted to their cellphones? If so, is that a problem?

I believe it varies from person to person. It all depends on the available statistics such as how long people spend on their screens, what purpose is it for, and other particulars. Do they use it for studying? Texting? Social media? Addiction depends on the purpose of the in question object or substance. A person who uses drugs for health purposes cannot be instantly pinned as a drug addict, can they? So, why should someone who uses their phones for study apps or socialisation be considered a phone addict?
