Mobile Phones

[idun]

I have to admit that I use mine rather more than I thought I would. I like texts really with proper information, ie 'I'm late', or 'I'll be early' or 'I'm outside the bank, where are you?' etc etc

What I don't understand is the continual communication people have, especially younger ones. It feels as if they have no time 'alone'. Time to get thoughts in order, or to not think at all, not that women can do that, but I know that men do, which is fine. Many people are texting or talking all the time.

And arguments, well they can go on right through the night, and I know about that as my son and his girlfriend are either shouting at one another or the frantically texting and neither will be sleeping. What stress, what happened to sleeping on a row, what happened to having a little cry and going to sleep. I have heard it said, one should never go to sleep without making up, but they don't seem to do that either. Seems miserable and intense to me even when they are not arguing.
