[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just hate people who can’t put their GD phones away around their kids. Just enjoy the playground, douchebag. [/quote]

You know, some of us have spouses who are in the military and absolutely love seeing videos or pictures of their kids at the playground.  I'm sorry you can't have any empathy for someone who may be recording a moment on a phone.  Scrolling through the internet instead of watching your child behave badly at the park and filming your kid are not the same thing, so chill out a bit.  Also, you have no idea what the person scrolling the internet is doing.  Perhaps they're trying to find a mental health professional to help them or researching chemo options for their parents.  Seriously, the level of anger you have at people you don't know is not healthy.  Try taking a deep breath next time and acknowledging that you have no idea why someone is doing something that you wouldn't do and remembering that it doesn't affect you and perhaps they're going through something.  Just try it.[/quote]

I know why they are doing it. Phone addiction. It’s rude and terrible for your kid. And I don’t think the phone needs to be out 24/7 in your hand to get 15 seconds of video for a deployed spouse. And research stuff on your phone when your kid is not around. Like at night. Some of us don’t use playground time or other time with our kids as a phone research opportunity. [/quote]
