That's why I've been thinking about it and writing a lot about it lately. That and the way our computers take up a lot of time in our lives when we could be interacting with people in person. I admire you for leaving Facebook and have thought about it once or twice myself.<br /><br />On the cell phone age thing, I don't know when we'll let Nate get one. Certainly not at age 3. :) I didn't get one until I was 23.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16496304868574645021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357427452062540865.post-90943455740117181702011-12-02T13:28:05.074-05:002011-12-02T13:28:05.074-05:00I think the lack of phone skills in our youth is v...I think the lack of phone skills in our youth is very sad. Everyone of Zander's 9 year old friends already have a cell phone...except him. And he reminds us of that often. I go back and forth about appropriate cell phone age, while Chris says they can get one whe he did, i go back and forth. Because all of his friends have one I know he will always be able to call me if need be, and something can be said for having to figure your way out without mom one call away to always bail you out. I don't know...the answer is there somewhere. I've noticed that it does go beyond the phone, communication skills in general are on the decline and that's scary if you think about it.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03768798026214767256noreply@blogger.com
