I hate how people are always checking their phones or playing games on them, especially when I take my granddaughter to the park or something.I actually play with her or at the very least watch her while she plays..far more interesting than texting or reading something on the internet!!
I find teenagers are too connected, nothing is secret as news travels quickly with instagram, facebook etc.
It is funny that you say that about teens.
Yesterday in class the teacher was going on about cell phones and social media and how she hates them so everyone better put them away.
We were then divided up into groups to do an assignment and there were 6 of us. Two of the girls in the group were in their phones and not paying attention while myself and the others did all of the work for it.
It boggles my mind that they are doing this while they are suppose to be paying attention in a class that they paid money to attend.
These kids are not in high school anymore, this is the real world and the start of the rest of your life. Pathetic.
I am actually looking forward to seeing how many people flunk out of first year because of this attitude.
