[quote=Anonymous]I definitely think phones are a problem for teens to socially develop. Maybe it isn’t so bad when they are with their friends. But I recently went to a causal dinner party where several families were invited. Kids were similar aged 12-15 yr olds, but went to different schools and either didn’t know each other or only had a met a couple times. You can bet they all retreated to separate areas solo with their phones. Zero effort was made to get to know each other or find things to do. I can recall parties like this as a young teen. While it always started off awkward since you didn’t know the others or weren’t friends- we all managed to socialize and have fun. Those days are gone I guess [/quote]
