You honestly sat somewhere for an hour watching 20 teenagers and took note of the amount of words shared between them???

Yeah, that's exactly what I did except I was hiding in the bushes.

My girlfriend never puts her phone down. I don't think she realizes how much she is on it. It's like second nature any time she has a spare moment to pick it up and open facebook or some other app now. I hate it.

We watched an entire table of about 20 sit for almost an hour and maybe say 10 words between them.
Is that what you did or didn't???
Or you going to tell me I paraphrased you wrong? Because you sound creepy

It won't be anywhere near as crowded as it was this past weekend. You should be able to dodge them pretty easily. The only crowd I've ever been in that's comparable was after the Saints won the NFCCG and Super Bowl in the Quarter. Even those crowds where short lived and eventually spread out. The Disney NYE crowd is a test in endurance and patience.

we went last year, kids were 11 and 8..old enough to be able to ride everything and we didnt need strollers or have to watch their every move...it was pretty easy as far as the kids and whatnot.
It's the crowds, lines and the people that I have a problem with. I dont really like people and the only kids I like are my own...

We sat down for almost an hour 2 tables away from the large group and it was pretty evident by how quiet they were. My wife first noticed then we all just started paying attention. Again, in that time a lot went on. Did you gloss over my squirrel story?

It's why I waited 11 years to take my family...11 more years they can take themselves if they want to go back

I actually took a picture while at home during Christmas of my nephew (10), brother (36), Dad (61), and Grandma (82) all sitting around the table, and all were staring at either their phone or iPad

We talked about it on the flight home. Our oldest graduates in May and our youngest in 2019. They've loved it since we first took them over a decade ago so that's why we go. We've done the skiing, West Coast, New York, Grand Canyon, camping type vacations but they always ask to go back to Disney. I don't have too much more time with them as kids so I'm hanging on to whatever I can.

But honestly people seem to care about others more than they should. I don't think for one second that the world Is passing by a teen that is immersed in technology. It can be easily said the opposite that people that shun technology at certain junctures are being passed by..... also there is always so much going on in the world at any one time, it's all passing us all by.
Just something I wouldn't take note of and especially not enough that i would tell my spouse how I'm noticing kids being on a phone then the next week go make a thread on a sports message board about kids being playing on a phone..

But yet, here you are, participating in the thread and acting like you're "Mr. Have the World Figured Out." It's fun isn't it? I mean, surely not all of your 90k+ post are all winners are they?

You are posting this on a message board on the internet. Do you really think you have any room to talk?
