[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You were wrong to check your phone at the table. You should have ignored her instead of responding. [b]Did you really think any good would have come out of responding?  And couldn’t you see the impact responding would cause?  [/b]

And you’ve got to give her a break given your FIL’s condition. She’s got to be sad and scared. [/quote]

This.
AND - If you are Asian, I have noticed a lot of Asians spend WAY too much time staring at their device. Even when walking down the street. I've watched whole families sit at restaurants staring at their phones and not talking thru the meal.
I speak as an Asian immigrant.

And yes, it is rude to check your phone at the table unless we are talking about an emergency.

oh please. I see all kinds of families staring at their phones in restaurants. I saw a white dad with his 2 little kids who just looked at his phone the entire time, while the kids just sat there. They had no phones. Or when I was at the park with my kids, and a white dad was on his phone the entire time, and I found his little kid by the car on the street wanting to go home.[/quote]

Unfortunately, it's kind of understood that men aren't into minding their small children.
The silent family at the restaurant staring at their phones and eating did not have small children.[/quote]
