That’s some impressive parenting Betty

In 10 or less years this is the norm!

That’s when you kiss everything you love goodbye!

One of the teachers told her students she always knew when they were on their phones. “Nobody looks at their lap and smiles. And if you do, we need to talk.”

Even if it’s nothing it is still something…….say what?

Smart phones are smarter than the people that use them.

Phone app companies are professionals who know how to manipulate FOMO.

So the parents insist on not having phones at the table but if they’re just sitting there munching what are they contributing to the experience? A kid Jr’s age can be expected to participate in a discussion if it’s interesting to him or involves his life in some way. But don’t just ask him what’s new and expect him to tell you something you actually wanted to hear. He has his own world to keep up with.

24 phone ban but the kid seems to run that house. Too bad.

Everybody wants to take away Junior’s phone. Have we considered slamming Betty’s hand in a car door? Then she’d be too busy yelping to care about his phone. Problem solved.
