[quote=Anonymous]When we moved to a new area, I used to make my kids attend such events, because I was thinking like an old person that they would make friends this way. Now everyone is on their phone. It’s not part of their learning that it’s important to make everyone feel included or even that they shouldn’t be on a device at a social event. I stopped making them go because they were the only ones ready to socialize. It is sad but it is what it is. FWIW, I still have the expectation that my kids don’t sit on their phones when company is over. If they have their own plans, they can go do that though. [/quote]
