Reliance on technology has killed the ability to speak face to face and extends to our homes and schools.
The dinner table, once the stronghold of family discussion as you well know, has been invaded by the new villain ('mobile devices') which saturate society. Teenagers have one eye on say Facebook while parents try and usually fail to strike up a conversation.
Texting in class is common now too, despite attempts by teachers to ban or integrate mobile technology into their lessons.
Well if thats whats happening these days its poor parenting in my view. Teachers cant stop em they have been neutered.
