Would be for parents to stay off of social media themselves & focus on paying attention to their own children instead of ignoring them by babbling a bunch of nonsense BS with their so-called friends & people they've never even met yet in life. That's the best answer if I do say so myself. Just saying... Not that all of these tech devices & cell phones aren't a big part of the problem, but IDGAS what anybody says, "It Starts In The Home, Period." If parents, family members, friends & neighbors in the community would just stop & do the right thing to help instill a few common moral values & principles into kid's.

The phone works for more than 30 hours in a power failure. So does the Internet as long as your laptop has a charge.
