Phone Addiction


If we ask a random passer-by what they couldn't leave home without, chances are they will nominate their mobile phone.

Communication is definitely a priority in life. In the quest of always being in touch and reach of friends, we end up neglecting the ones who are sitting right in front of us at the dining table. Addiction to mobile phone can lead to a host of problems.

Family meals where members hardly talk to each other as their attention is focused n the mobile phones/smartphones. They tend to pay more attention to their phones instead of family members at the dining table. Isn't it rude to let our attention drift away when someone is talking to us? There have been time of absolute silence where a few family members would be looking at their mobile phone instead of each other. There is lack of communication and interaction when we focus more on our mobile phones. Many children who are hooked on mobile phones, texting and online chatting may be unable to handle real life, not forgetting the health related problems too.

Something for sharing.
