        Even without payphone, most kids do not use cell to talk. Text only. Most that are on there own in Canada do not even have landline in home.

        Can't read books; can't write in cursive; can't focus on one thing at a time; don't know the first thing about history... a huge step back.

        Ignore anything that challenges your baseless assumptions. You're more useful to Minitrue that way.
