My mom is always saying "do you not know how to talk on the phone". I prefer to text and probably just about everyone else my age. Sure my mom text too and even my grandma after I taught her. I would rather text someone then call then is that a bad thing? I don't think so I think it is easier then talking on the phone to someone. You don't have answer them, or you can answer when you feel like it. My boyfriend and I text all day we would not be able to talk on the phone to each other all day. I'm in school and he is at work so it makes so much easier to talk and see what each other is up to.
