                                                        Should Beepers Be Banned?

    In my opinion I think beepers shouldn't be banned.  For some students they are necessary to carry beepers because their parents want them to.  Parents want to be reach their children easily in an emergency.  If they don't have beepers, their parents should call them by school telephone, but it needs time for teachers to check who is the student.  Another reasons so many students they have jobs, they want to be easy for themselves and for their boss. If they're job schedule has some change, the boss can't find them at home, then the boss can call their beepers.  They can easily know what's the happen.

   Today beepers are mainstream.  Students can simply set their pagers on vibrating mode to avoid classroom interruptions.  Beepers wouldn't have the sound so it won't effect students study in the class.  When beepers are vibrating, they know somebody is calling them, and they can check the beepers after claa.  If they don't have beepers they may feel uncomfortable because beepers are necessary for them.  If they don't have beepers, they may get more problems, because beepers can let people the find each other easily and quickly.  Therefore, I think beepers shouldn't be banned.
