Cell Phone Attachment Disorder
By REGINA KEILERS
The Fayette County Record
Are we too attached to our cell phones? At one time, I would have said, “Um, maybe,” but after multiple cell phone outages this summer, I think I want to change my response to “Absolutely yes.” I saw multiple posts on Facebook asking if others were having trouble with their phones. No one at our office had cell phone service. When I called, the people at the phone company told me that they were experiencing a large outage in Texas. They also assured me that it would be resolved that evening. Well, it was only to become a problem again the next day. There was a time when cell phones were a luxury – some people had them, many people did not. Well, that is not true any more. Everyone, it seems, has a cell phone. Children are asking their parents to get them one when they are 10 and younger.
