Boy tries to stab mom for cutting internet access - Android Authority

"One reason for the child’s apparent addiction was because he would take his cell phone to the toilet. Yes, the toilet."

I also take my phone to the toilet.... One of the few times a day where I get to use my phone for the purpose other than talking (ie play game, social networking, etc).

Unsurprising. Some people are pre-disposed at birth to addictions.

I take my phone to the toilet, and my morning cup of tea on rare occasions!.

With the exception of the first of the month when my new Road & Track magazine comes in, my phone is always in the bathroom with me.

Seems kinda normal, the kid though, not so much.

I may soon be the only person on the planet who can hang out with you for dinner/etc...and won't ever look at a smartphone. not even once. i'm actually kinda proud of that--the same way i'm proud of not having a FB account.

Not sure if you were asking me a question. I can tell you that smartphones are piss expensive compared to the alternative (my phone has cost me <$30 this year). And I value what little privacy can still be found on the internet, so no FB/g-mail either.

Oh, that drives me insane. I get checking your phone to look something up because it goes with the conversation, or to check a quick text. But to be actively engaged with your phone when out with a person. Drives me up the wall! haha

That is just wrong. ALL food and drink should remain as far away from the shitter at all times. Your tea is marinating in stench man. Enjoy that.
