Last year on Father’s Day I was at the mall with friends and we decided to go to the food court.

Many families there. ALL glued to their cell phone!!

Growing up in the 60’s and 70’s, you came home from school, did your homework, ate a family dinner (And if was liver, you flicked it off your plate when your parents weren’t watching and the dog would eat it) and spent the evening sitting with your parents watching TV shows like “The Dick Van Dyke Show” and “F Troop” .

Summers you spent all day playing with the kids in the neighborhood. (climbing tree’s, riding bikes, snake hunting, playing “Man From U.N.C.L.E,” were considered cool back then)

We have replaced social interaction with social media. Social interaction is where you learn compassion, empathy and kindness.

This will not end well.
