In the U.S., it’s gotten worse…
Sixty-five percent, or about two in three people, sleep with or next to their smart phones. (Among college students, it’s even higher).
Thirty-four percent admitted to answering their cell phone during intimacy with their partner. (Hey, what happened to valuing the person you are with in-person?)
One in five people would rather go without shoes for a week than take a break from their phone. (It’s a good way to lose your sole and your soul).
More than half never switch off their phone. (I’d call that an addiction).
A full 66 percent of all adults suffer from “nomophobia.”
