The thing about smartphones and the internet in general is that there is a lot of crap out there. Sure kids may read more, but what they read matters. If they're reading websites that deny the Holocaust or give bogus health advice like bleach curing autism or things like that, that's not good. Without education, how are they going to know what they read on their phone is garbage?
