Cecilio Luna Salazar advocates for a total ban on mobile phones in basic education schools to improve student focus.
Cecilio Luna Salazar, a representative of the State Association of Parents, is promoting a total ban on mobile phones for students in basic education. He argues that excessive use of these devices, particularly high-end phones, serves as a distraction that can negatively impact students' social development, academic performance, and skills in language and mathematics.

Luna Salazar stated that the new generation of students often struggles with basic reading, writing, and mathematical operations. He is seeking an invitation from local and federal legislative bodies to analyze the proposal to establish these restrictions. He noted that while mobile phones are distractions, tablets and computers are viewed as different tools that can support learning. For parents who need to stay in communication with their children, Luna Salazar suggested purchasing lower-end phones that only provide messages and calls. He believes the majority of parents support this measure to protect children from the consequences of excessive technology use.
