I do agree that it is wrong to drive (since driving involves more than just you, its the whole highway) while texting or talking to someone over the phone even if it is on bluetooth or whatever else they use. but its a little to dramatic to make a big deal about just walking around your house texting and in rockaway Oregon's highschool you can just flip out your phone and start texting regardless of lessons.

It costs to much, it is more tedious than calling people and it makes people look retarded. It probably has a detrimental effect on grammar too. I’m 17 and I don’t text.
