I'm a part of the younger generation so technology usually doesn't bother me that much; but I also have to wonder: what's up with the kids with their headphones in while texting/browsing the web on their phones while out at dinner with the family? Its something that I used to see all the time when I worked at TGI Fridays.
My gripe is not even so much with the kids, but moreso the parents. I mean, lets keep it real- when you're 14 years old just about anything is more entertaining than your parents. I would expect a teenager to want to be anywhere but with them, but why would parents even allow that? We didn't go out to eat much when I was growing up, but when we did I always felt like it was a treat. Not only some good food, but a good time hanging out with your family, shooting the shit..
I don't know. That's something that bothers me too.
