Even in theme parks I've made the rule with my GF. No phone in the parks unless we're taking pictures or we need to get in touch with someone we're meeting. Previously she'd be like your cousin and get all nervous continuously looking at the phone, or her family would always be calling her & getting her upset. Now she loves the rule and actually needs coaxed to bring the phone along for pictures. Smartphones are becoming the bane of society when overused.something that happens with my cousin is that she cannot stop looking at her phone EVEN if you are talking to her.
she says she can talk to you And read the phone at the same time, but i don't buy it.
she literally cannot eat lunch without reading the phone or have a conversation with you
I made it a rule that if we are going to talk, she has to put the phone in her pocket. and you can see her starting to freak out. her feet starts to tap, her legs start to shake. she bites her thumbs. she plays with her hair. she gets more nervous and anxious the more we talk without the phone in her hand.
Sometimes i notice she posts things on facebook at 3 AM. just random stuff. i think she wakes up in the middle of the night and just starts texting. ive tried to tell her parents but they dont care
