Tween Texting


I see so many tweens on their phones texting one another. I see it happen in groups, when one tween starts texting another who is standing right next to them, while the rest of the tweens are standing by. I think this is rude behavior and does not show respect for the other friends in the group.  With tweens and now even young children getting a cell phone, parents need to instill how to have one-on-one communication with another person.  I think the bases of one on one communication are getting lost with our young generation.  How do we teach our children about communication? The tweens should understand that text messaging shouldn't take the place of one-on-one interaction with their friends. If you want your child to bond with his friends encourage that they spend time together hanging out talking not text messaging.
