You can’t go to a sporting event, concert, or wedding without seeing people with their heads buried in their phones. And there are probably FATHERS who get caught scrolling during a child’s birth.
In a new survey, 1 in 10 adults admit that they’ve missed a once-in-a-lifetime moment . . . because they were too busy messing around on their phone.
46% admit they’ve scrolled during situations where they should have been present, like a birthday party, a family gathering, or while “sightseeing.”
52% of people say they’ve been so distracted by their phone, they’ve had to rewind a movie or TV show to figure out what’s going on.
66% admit that they’ll sometimes pick up their phone, without a clear reason . . . and 47% wish they could “reclaim the time they’ve wasted on their smartphone.”
