Round 1
blendofthreeFOR
Don`t you wonder children under 13 or so aggressive. It's because of phones. Phone is addictive. So, when their parents let them stop wanting phone, they will abuse their parents like hitting their parents or else. There's a case in America where children in America abuse their mother by taking a metal object and hitting it on her leg.

The other side makes it sound like a phone is just a toy, but it can be a basic way for a kid to reach someone if something goes wrong. I get that phones cause problems, I am not sure how to fully argue it, but banning them outright feels too simple.
Round 2

It's not a simple thing. Think of this. Some only play games and don't focus on the studies. What about the future? Don't you think about it? Their future will be ruined. And why I said this? It's because what if they only focus on games? Will they pass their important exams like college entrance exam or university entry? That's why I strongly agree with this motion.
PoliteDestroyerAGAINST
Isn't a phone sometimes just the fastest way for a kid to call for help? My opponent makes a fair point about addiction and anger, and honestly I am not sure how to argue against that. Still, banning every kid under thirteen feels too broad to me.
Round 3
blendofthreeFOR
Calling for help is okay, but what about their health? If these kids watch too much phone, because they are addicted, controlling them is hard. Parents can't control them. So they will watch their phone day and night. They will never stop. And this leads to eye problems because their screen time increases and affects their eyes.
PoliteDestroyerAGAINST
My opponent is right that phones can distract kids and hurt study habits, and I am not really sure how to argue with that. But banning all under thirteen still feels too broad, since a phone can be the simplest way for someone to reach help fast.
