The disdain some of us had of parents who let sesame st babysit their kids, because they didn't embrace a teachable moment by merely sitting with them, parallels the disdain we should have for not only letting cells babysit our kids outside of schools hours, but as teachers/parents, not sitting with them, embracing these powerful teachable moments.

no....it’s about 2 bill cell phones in the develop world."
