[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now high school kids can’t even use their phone at lunch. Are you kidding me?? How ridiculous.[/quote]

Count your blessings. Kids are becoming completely anti-social and unable to function without their phone-pacifiers. It's not right. They should be present and interact without being able to open instagram and snap at the first moment of discomfort. It's SO bad for them, we are hobbling future generations by allowing them to live these virtual lives. At least school can be one place that no one is on their stupid phone.[/quote]

Sorry, my high schooler doesn’t have snap or Instagram. He has zero social media. It’s unfortunate that good kids will be punished now because of this.[/quote]

Then why do they need their phone? 2 of my 4 kids also don't do social media but they don't need to be playing online chess or watching Youtube videos when they are surrounded by peers. I'm absolutely astounded that parents think their kids need more phone time instead of building conversational skills. I will tell you one thing - they hit the workforce and we can't stand them - these phone obsessed kids that can't look people in the eye or sustain a conversation? It's awful. [/quote]
