Cell Phones Create Conceited People

Class is over and as people are walking out of the building what are they doing?—They’re checking their cell phones to see if anyone called them, listening to voice mails, or they are calling someone because heaven forbid they walk without a phone attached to their ear. These people think that they must be seen as important and thus they can not conceive walking down the street with no one to talk to. People with cell phones are so conceited. They think they are so important that they need a cell phone with them at all times because EVERYBODY wants to talk to them. All cell phones do is make peoples’ heads get bigger. Why do you think people leave their cell phones on vibrate during class? —Because they love to hear that lovely buzzing sound from their bag telling them that they’re someone special. They leave it on vibrate so everyone around them hears it and knows it too.

We see what cell phones have done to people in college. Just imagine what we’re doing to the children! The other day, the fifth grader I nanny for pulls out her new cell phone which was bought for “emergencies” which clearly means text messaging friends to this fifth grader. This little girl already thinks she is hot stuff because she has a cell phone. Pretty soon children won’t even have play dates and sleep overs, they’ll just talk and text about their playground drama on their cell phones. So I warn all the parents out there: Don’t think that buying your son or daughter a cell phone is going to allow you to keep tabs on them because you are instead going to produce conceited adults that can’t put their cell phones down and have obnoxious ring tones like Fergie's "Glamorous."
