re: Kids at restaurants with electronic devices

Never understood the problem with smartphones at a dinner table. Some people act like they're being disrespected if they see a smartphone out.

Nobody bitched when gramps read the newspaper at the head of the table.

If there's more than 2 or 3 people at the table there will be more than one conversation going on anyways, not some deep important all-inclusive discussion.

So quit being dramatic. It's dinner. You're supposed to eat. Talking/newspapers/smartphones are all distractions from eating.


And fwiw I don't use a smartphone at the table.
