I think smartphones are the worst invention of this century. They bring all the addictive services (not just social media but also news, gaming and such) everywhere, with minimum resistence. Before smartphones every silent moment, every moment of boredom people had to figure out something to do, make do with what was available. Now the phone is always the path of least resistance and instant gratification, which does nothing good to our brains. Too often I find myself and my partner just staring our phones while our child is playing. I wish I could destroy these cursed devices. |

My partner and I keep our phones put away when with our child _as a rule_. It's worth trying this out and seeing how your outlook might change. You don't have to use your phone; you're addicted to it. Fix the problem by taking responsibility and do things differently.
