Parent or no, if you pull out your phone at a meal then you're a piece of shite.

I agree.
And if you are nosy like me you'll notice that most people that are so consumed with their phones are scrolling Facebook.

I'd put my phone down more often if I didn't have to downvote posts like this.

Also, why are you creeping on some other dad with his kids instead of paying attention to whoever you are eating with? You're not focused either.

My kids are grown and at work.

But when we had dinner together last night, no phones. We talked shite and women and college sports like men.

so you are in a restaurant, i'm assuming with company, watching other families and simultaneously posting about them complaining of their lack of attention?

Went to California Pizza Kitchen last night with wife and daughter. Never took out our phones. Family time.

Guilty. I did some self evaluation. On Sundays especially, I leave the phone at home and hang with the family.

Should have left the kids in the car and went to lunch at the strip club, like a real dad.

A lot of us bitched about our dads being at work all the time. Looks like the cycle is repeating, but with phones this time.

Don't blink, baws. And put down the phone.




Maybe they aren't his kids. Did you ever think of that?

Well you are kind of judging the type of father this guy is based on your particular 10 minutes of visual contact. Maybe this dude had the whole day of shite he's doing with his kids and his eating time was time he was just relaxing for some damn time...
