[EAS] Can this be true?

And as an example, I chastised my daughter this morning for missing the 
text message
from her HS principal alerting staff of a two hour start delay which 
would
have made her morning a lot less maddening as she dropped off her son
at day care under icy road conditions and then got to work two hours 
early!

The reason she missed the alert was she had been on her mobile device 
just prior
attending to nonsense before packing it away in her day bag and getting 
ready to
dash out the door with baby.  Had she been still using her smartphone 
for what
we gray hairs think is a waste of time, like FaceBook, she would have 
seen the alert.

Staying connected round the clock wherever you happen to be is the new 
normal for the younger
generation.  Heck, even my PD's who are older than millennials do the 
same.
