A parent scrolling through their phone while their kid sits nearby misses moments that won't come back. The speaker warns that when children grow up and leave, parents regret the time lost to social media instead of real attention.
You know, there's so many times that I see people hanging out with their kids and the kids are around and they're just looking at their phone and their kids trying to get their attention, and they're just not giving attention to their child. And I get it. There's different circumstances. I don't understand what's going on in everyone's life. But when your children are 19 years old, they move out of the house, they leave, you won't think to yourself, man, I wish I would have spent more time scrolling on Instagram. You'll think to yourself, I wish they were three years old again. Right. So be more present to. Your children will never be as young as they are now.
