Smart Phones…Dumb People

Did you hear about the researchers in Boston who watched 55 people as they ate in a fast-food restaurant?  They were adults with young children.  Researchers observed that 75% of the adults used their smart phones while eating, and some didn’t put them down even once during the meal.  The kids?  They were acting up, trying to get some attention.

Maybe the lesson is that we should spend more time ignoring our phones and paying more attention to our kids, especially during meals.
