depotguy's blog post - Things that drive me crazy ......437 (err...I lost count)

Why do people with children spend all their time talking on their cell phones? I watch these seemingly forgotten kids trailing behind mama or daddy everywhere. This is the time these kids are learning important life skills. What are these kids learning? What it feels like to be ignored?
And what the hell are these people talking about? What can be more important than the mini you's trailing behind? And yes we all can hear your conversations. It is SO important to tell your sister in New york all about the new curtains you bought. Just shut up.
I'd like to say i feel better now but i'd be kidding myself.

Funny, MsMilf said this in the forum (that you don't read)... so I guess it's a larger problem than realised.

I can dismiss the annoying idiots, but like you say: What about the kids?

I'm not going to lie I'm on my cell phone and bit and probably will be later in life but I definitely will not ignore my kids.

I agree and, by the way, I have no cell phone.

between cell phones and t.v's this generation being born now won't be able to function without some sort of electrical device....
