OP here.
Yes, it was the first time.

We had a conversation at dinner. I told him that when someone is talking to him, he needs to give them full attention, meaning he stops playing on the phone, video game, reading or whatever else he is doing. He always has mine attention when he talks to me and I expect the same. I told him that sometimes if he doesn't hear the phone or if he is in the middle of something and needs another minute or two, he needs to call me back. As I said, I don't call him every day, so when I do, it's probably something important that can't wait until the end of the day. 
It happens maybe twice a week. 
I told him that if it happened again, he would lose his phone for a day or two.

It ended on a good note. We always wait until dinner to talk about our day, school stuff and whatever else we have going on. He is pretty open most of the time and likes to talk.
I guess today was just really hectic with everything. 
And I do realize that if that is my biggest problem, then I'm really, really blessed.[/quote]
