Have our kids lost the art of conversation?! When I was a kid, we spent hours on the phone…talking. Now, our kids spend hours texting. And they aren’t even using real words, lol, pun intended. Their texts are filled with abbreviations that I don’t understand and endless emojis to express their feelings giving them a way out of expressing their feelings in words. Remember…words? I constantly find myself reminding my kids how to address adults (“Hello, Mrs. So and So, how are you?”) encouraging them to get beyond the one syllable, head-down, “hi” greeting. Will our kids survive an interview for college or a job?
