I looked over at the table next to us and there was a whole family all jacked into their devices, except the dad. He didn't look happy at all. He looked sad and lonley, surrounded by his family on a vacation that had to be costing him a considerable sum.
...”a whole family all jacked into their devices, except the dad... He didn’t look happy at all. He looked sad and lonely, surrounded by his family”......
I think all parents can relate to this happening these days. Heck I was with my son and his wife for a visit and they were busy texting ‘each other’ while sitting ‘next to each other!’.....I attempted ‘face to face conversation’ but felt like I was intruding on their private conversation which continued. So I left for home.
I’ve been around people who pull up their cells while we’re conversing ...I stop and walk away if they begin texting or whatever.
I had a cell phone for about a month or so and hated it. So I stopped using one. I have a phone and if they want to talk “call me”. It’s worked.
