We are raising two attractive teen age girls. I have a shop full of airplanes, cars and boats in various stages of completion. When a teen age boy comes over to see one of the girls if for some reason he comes into the shop, I have yet to have one show the slightest interest in any of the projects. If you can't send messages to your peers, they are not interested in it.

True story: I once had reason to pick up and haul one of the girls along with three of her friends someplace. I noticed almost dead silence in the car at some point and looked around. All four girls had their cell phones out and were communicating with someone via text messages. I don't know if they were texting each other or had four different conversations going or some combination of the two. From that point, I banned the use of cell phones in my vehicles except in the case of emergency. If folks wanted to communicate in my vehicle, they were forced to do it face to face verbally.
