Why does GenZ have such a hesitatation/avoidance/fear of talking on the phone?
My 24yo son gives out MY cell phone to places so that they call ME to say whatever...example that just happened: pharmacy near him called me.
When this happens, I then text him.
But
I'm so salty about it that I start by saying things like,
"You gave my cell to (CVS).
Rude.
Your prescription is ready."
I should start *calling* him, except I know he won't answer, he'll text back "what?"
