Paragraph question:

If so, is that a problem?

Yes, some scientists has researched that some students who spend a long time on their phones has similar brains to drugged adults. It is a problem for most parents. Parenting this kind of child would be a havoc and would cause a problem towards family bonding time. According to the website  PsychGuides.com, the human brain isn't finished devoloping until around the age of 25 years old. Meaning, if the brain is interfered by the blue rays of a phone it could have negative implications on brain devolopment. Overall, teenagers should not be spending a lot of time towards a cellphone.
