I like to text. It lets me talk to people without talking. I think that its good because if you don't feel like talking anymore you just don't text them back if your on the phone then you have to think of an excuse to hang up. And if you are kidnapped you can't call someone. You can text them secretly. Texting can be helpful. You can save valuable information. You can also talk without people around you hearing your conversation. Also if your at work or school you cant talk on the phone so you text.
