Probably aged 5-8, each one their nose almost stuck to their own iPads. Making all kinds of beeps and whistles. One was watching cartoons. She walked right into my cart and said ouch. Mom looked over at me and gave me a dirty look. I started to say "hey your kid cant watch where they are going with their nose stuck in an ipad" but didn't want more aggravation that day so I just walked away...
That reminds me of this story.

It’s hard to decide who are the biggest morons in this story: parents or daughter. 15 year-old Alexa Longueira was walking along Victory Boulevard in Staten Island when she fell into an open manhole.
Why didn’t she see it? You’re ahead of me here. She was too intent on tapping out a text message to notice the gaping gap in the sidewalk and just dropped straight on in.
