NYC Kids Spend Estimated $4.2 Million On Phone Storage »

$22,800. That is how much money the New York Post estimates New York City high school students hand over each day to make sure their cell phones are safe while they are in class. And all because the Department of Education continues to be incredibly stubborn about its cellphone policy. Even sadder is that most of the kids paying to keep their phones locked up could really use that extra money for things like lunch.

Even those students don’t hesitate to cut back on food for the sake of their smartphones! So, a part of digital culture is evolving?!
