Should there be cell phone etiquette?

You can have a number of handbooks on etiquette of using mobiles but how are you going to enforce. Our experience tells us most people are averse to reading as well as curing their bad habits. Do you believe people would by and abide by such handbooks. It is better to give such people a dose of their own medicine. Get common acquaintances to be as rude to him as he is to you. He will soon realize what he is lacking and try to be a little more polite. Good luck!

Just like anything else, I do believe there should be etiquette with cell phones. I don't like people talking loud in restaurants & other public places. I always wanted to tell people to keep the conversation to themselves. I try to avoid crowded places when I have to use my cell phone & if I have to, I usually excuse myself & walk away from crowd when it's absolutely necessary for me to use the phone.

I have had situations, where my daughter would call me, but she was talking to other in the house at the saem time she is talking to me. I think that is so rude, as if she wants to talk to me, she needs to talk to me and no one else, or wait until she can give me her undiivided attention. I hve never let it bother me though, but it isn't right, especially when we live so far away from each other and don't see each other very much. I don't do that to her, but then there is no one here but me and my dogs, and they certainly can't talk back. So, now our communication is by texting, where she has to give me her undivided attention, but then, sometimes we will be texting, and all of a suddent, the texts just stop with no explanation. She will apologize though as say that things got hectic so she coulsn't text at that time. I am the kinf of person, that if you are going to talk to me, then talk, or don't talk at all. Have a good day, and happy mylotting.
