growing up we ate together, no tv in sight. Hope to carry that on with my family (if i have one!)

@nahright09 There’s a part of me that wants to get some land, design a home to live in and have a treehouse to hang out in. No electronics will be allowed if I do that. It will be for bonding and relaxing, talking and sharing. TVs and phones,etc are fine but there needs to be place to get away from it.

@cherokeepatti completely agree! There is a time and place for everything, taking a break from screens is very important. It irks me when i see families sitting together at a restaurant and no one is talking because they've got their head down, staring at their phones.

@nahright09 I know a teen girl who has done that. I don’t even know if I should be offended or if it is so habitual that she isn’t aware of what she’s doing.
