They are also the same voters who won't pay our teachers what they deserve.

I suppose saying something to her wouldn't have been the best thing for the child since it was her mother, but if you could have gotten her alone, I think it would be interesting to see her reaction. There are no cell phones at the dinner table, at home or in restaurants. That's our time to connect with each other.

Hopefully one day they will reemerge. And your post shows that it's been going on for two generations now. I shudder to think what the next generation will be like when their grandparents are as bad, too.anthonynorthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06680944720744601697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26613104.post-85359026906194212182008-11-26T16:45:00.000-05:002008-11-26T16:45:00.000-05:00I so agree with you - and love the image of the bl...I so agree with you - and love the image of the bloomin' vegie riding a head!

Sad really....and they wonder why everything is so screwed up! I'm not gunna lie it's a mess....people need to snap back into reality.... live in the moment, hear what their kids are saying....read between the lines, and teach by example. And think about it people, some families have enough cell phone bills in their homes that could pay a mortgage...stupid money spent....buy a pay as you go for emergencies. Save the money and go on a holiday as a family!<BR/><BR/>Good one Lucy!<BR/><BR/>Hugs GigglesGiggleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713143985984314202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26613104.post-84819232974260373722008-11-26T15:34:00.000-05:002008-11-26T15:34:00.000-05:00People and there cell phones keep making me crazy!...People and there cell phones keep making me crazy!!!I have a phone too but I hardly ever use it.I see people wasting there whole lives playing with those stupid phones!!!They don't even care who they are talking to or texting as long as they can do it and not focus on the real world in front of them.Mistress Meeyeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10093627956302299212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26613104.post-34952790330232088482008-11-26T14:20:00.000-05:002008-11-26T14:20:00.000-05:00Martha stewart needs to broadcast manners everywhe...Martha stewart needs to broadcast manners everywhere.Queen-Size funny bonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14134308455271808356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26613104.post-82726240212753588882008-11-26T14:13:00.000-05:002008-11-26T14:13:00.000-05:00There are no manners anymore, because parents stop...There are no manners anymore, because parents stopped teaching manners in the 80s.
