A...Okay, I have to talk from my weird perspective. As a mom to 7 who looooooves pictures and looooooves to write, a smartphone was a genius design! Way before smartphones I was taking tons and tons of pictures and posting on my blog. smartphones with social media just added to the fun! No, I don't care for selfies too much unless one of my kids asks me to have one with them. I've met some pretty amazing people online that have helped me through some really, really bad times. When homeschooling, I've referred to my smartphone many times to find answers to questions. I no longer have to run to my computer every time I need to look up something. I looooooove my smartphone. I do hate it when a friend texts and plays on her phone when we are out to eat. We can't talk like that. I don't like it replacing my children or husband. It should never replace anyone in my life. Unless of course they are annoying.

(I don't, but just in theory.)<br /><br />People just have no dang self-control. Put the thing in your pocket! I have a hammer, too, but I don't run around swacking things with it all the time. :)Happy Elf Mom (Christine)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047347624037697311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-20209932315669889942014-05-30T03:04:07.796-05:002014-05-30T03:04:07.796-05:00That first paragraph absolutely stunned me. WHEN d...That first paragraph absolutely stunned me. WHEN did people become so self-involved to the exclusion of all others? HOW did this happen? WHY? <br />It's my opinion that cameras and phones should never have been placed in the same machine. I'm not too sure about phones with internet either. We just DON'T need to be connected 24/7. A few generations from now, we'll be robots.<br />Our grandchildren's grandchildren will be robots. sad sad sad.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-31818896715103723882014-05-30T00:16:56.239-05:002014-05-30T00:16:56.239-05:00Sorry!
