No phones at my table..

[Scrumpy]

Why do parents allow it.. !!  Could it be that they too are on their phones.. !!

The art of conversation at a meal table is dying..
 If a mobile phone rings at my table the person usually apologizes and quickly glances at the message should it be important.. If they have to be excused , that is fine. They leave the room for a moment..

Also what I heard this week is that children as young as eight are buying cosmetics for their face that could be harmful for younger skin..
EIGHT !!!!  Who on earth is paying for it..?  The mind boggles...

I agree,  it's all wrong.
But as you say  who is encouraging it by paying for it?
