Note that even in some run-down areas of town, kids have flashy cellphones. Maybe they are just chatting out of boredom, or chatting for the sake of chatting? These seem plausible explanations to me.

Does it seem that the children are chatting with other children in the same vicinity (same cafe?), or are they frequenting chat rooms/groups, which possibly introduce them to people outside their locale?
