Heard and seen jokes/pictures, but until today I haven't seen it with my own eyes.
A couple of friends and I were eating in a small homey cafe. More like a mom's kitchen. Anyway, straight ahead of me I saw a small nice looking family (mom, dad and two kids) sitting at a table waiting for their food. Nice family outing, right? Well the mom was engrossed in reading a magazine and dad was busy with a smart phone or some sort of gadget. The children were sitting facing each other talking a bit ever now and then, quiet and well behaved. The food arrived and mom had to literally tear herself away from the magazine when she realized the bottom of the pages were getting soaked in her food. The dad stayed with his phonewhatever in one hand and a fork in the other, jabbing a piece of food ever now and then, until he was forced to lay his gadget down because he came to the stage where he had to use both hands to eat.
Entertaining little show. Once the magazine and gadget were put aside the family actually talked to each other almost non stop, the children being the center of the conversation.
Go figure .....

It's addictive I think. Last time out with son, dil and gr kids, they were texting fools |

I saw a young couple both texting on their cells while waiting for food, why be out together if your going to be texting other people? |

Like Rosalie said, it is probably addictive. |
