Description

TODDLERS AND TECHNOLOGY--NOT SO DIFFERENT!
Owning a Blackberry smartphone is a little like adding another child to your family. The device is constantly buzzing, poking, and distracting its owner from whatever it is she's trying to accomplish. It bears an uncanny resemblance to the uncooperative two-year-old hanging off Mom's leg at the Motor Vehicle Office. And is that holster really any different from a Baby Bjorn? Still not convinced? Consider:
They both “start up? the minute you visit the washroom. They both go off in the middle of the night. They?re both heartier than you think, but sometimes the slightest thing can lead to a complete break down.
