The Time Everyone Texted at the Dinner Table

"We eat together, but our eyes are on the screen."

Sunday dinners at the Iyer household were sacred. Home-cooked food, laughter, and stories filled the table. But lately, something had changed—everyone was too busy texting.

One day, Grandma had enough. She seized all their phones and placed them in a bowl.

“No phones until dinner is over,” she declared.

At first, there was discomfort, then awkward silence. But soon, real conversations started. They laughed, teased, and enjoyed the meal like old times.

By the end, nobody even missed their phones.

Moral: The best connections happen face-to-face, not through a screen.
