Haha yeah, texting during meals is rude but if my partner takes a bathroom break I’m whipp’n out my… iPhone lol!
BTW do they have 12 step for Twitter addiction? LOL!
No, I’m with you in this situation. It’s truly rude to text on the dinner table especially in front of the children. We are giving them the wrong values or should I say, showing them the wrong values which they have to learn from the parents in the first place.

Hi Lori,
It seems hard to pull away sometimes because it’s so much fun to hang out on facebook and twitter. But, we really do need to make time available that is “internet-free”.

Texting at the dinner table is definitely rude! What (apart from perhaps contact with the daycare provider!) could possibly be so important? How did we survive again when people couldn’t contact us EVERY minute of the day?!!!!

We didn’t know that we had it so good. I remember having to find a pay phone to call someone. We had to stand in line and wait for other people to finish their conversations! Can you believe it? Were we more patient back then?

I am torn on this subject. On one hand, yeah, I hate it when I’m out with someone or in a meeting and people are texting, but my daycare provider communitcates by text. So while my kids are there my phone is glued to me in case I am needed. But at the dinner table, no way. Not cool.
Thanks for visiting Typing One Handed!

Hey Kelly Jo,
You do what you gotta do to be there for your kids. I know Krizia would never object to that type of message checking. We all have a threshold that screams “too much” when we’re trying to have a conversation and the other person is listening “distracted”.

Oh I’m with you on this. On all of it.
Since when is it okay to ignore the person you’re with to talk to someone else?
I make a point of either silencing my phone or turning off the ringer and saying, “Sorry about that. I’ll call them back later.”
Because chances are, no one is texting an emergency. If it’s an emergency, a sane, logical person would call you.
I support the crap out of this righteous indignation!

Grilled Cheese,
Interesting name…I have a sandwich for you. It’s a multi-layer cheese with bacon piece of heaven. Some veggies come with it to silence those nosy good nutrition people. It’s about halfway down the page…

And I promise NOT to look at my cell-ie AT all for at least 5 no 10 no really I can do this – 15 minutes while you’re eating your sammie. Lol! But seriously, you’re gonna luv this sandwich. Yummy! Do people say your name differently when they’re hungry? Just wondering…hahahaha!
