This book is a unique one written by people of two generations, Jonathan is in his forties, Alyssa is in her twenties, for all their differences, they have things in common, like realizing how much screen time they used,

In 2000 a year after SMS were available on cell phones, the average amount of texts that were sent were 35, that’s equivalent to about one a day.

Cell Phones that could replace your computer, iPod, or other devices did not exist until 2007, when Steve Jobs launched the first iPhone. And Social Media did not go mobile until 2012, Instagram launched late in. 2010, but did not become popular until 2012, and Snapchat was released in 2012 as well.

The Teens Guide to Face to Face Connections in A Screen to Screen World reminds us that our conversations become more enjoyable when everyone puts their phone in their pockets, and interacts.
