Dad takes son to Mongolia to get him off his phone
> "Oh my God, that was terrible! I can't be left with my brain like that!"<p>> "I had never before that experienced a weekend without my phone, essentially," Khobe told the BBC. "It was very weird for me."<p>I cannot take this article seriously at all. From the title, to the premise, to idea you have to go to Mongolia to get your kid to put down their phone and interact with you. You can go literally anywhere or nowhere (stay home) and have the exact same experience.<p>We can absolutely celebrate a father/son camping trip but the idea this is what parents have to do to pull their kids away from their phones is both false and clickbaity as hell.<p>> "When you're in a group of people and you're supposed to have social interaction time, but everyone's on their phone, that's when I've tried to change my habits," he says.<p>> "It's rude to not give people your undivided attention."<p>That's true, it is rude to not give people your undivided attention also if everyone in your "friend" group is on their phones the whole time and not paying attention then you might want to look for better friends...
