I was listening to the radio this morning and they replayed the Christopher Walken interview from yesterday. He is 77 and has never had a cell phone or computer. He has a landline phone that was there when he bought the house and still has the same #.
The 20somethings on the show were yelling "how can you even live without your phone?!?!? OMG!!!! impossible!"
This is the problem. It is no longer an entertainment device for them - it is their entire life. Every part of their lives revolve around their phone - including their self-worth. When you give a device that much power over your life - you are doomed.
When our parents told us to go play outside because that TV would "rot your brains" - they were not too far off. Very sad to see.
