my old lady friends are on their blasted facebook pages capturing every moment all the damn time. It's an addiction.
But it's no worse than mine with the internet in general. I like having info at my fingertips. 
I was hoping nobody noticed.
my kids grew up without teevee and I finally got off dialup just 5 years ago. Our wifi hotspot is so weak however, we can't stream movies or play games...
So imagine having a couple decades like that - not just a week!
I will say it definitely alters kids when they grow up without video games, teevee etc. My kids still prefer things like reading books and camping. Neither play video games or watch teevee even now that they're grown and could do so at their own apartments.
Even more so they're not glued to their phones. They don't fiddle with them at the table and will happily play cards with everyone else after T-day or Xmas dinner. My 27 yr old lives near LA but works at a living history museum in the mountains and has no cell service up there at all for the entire work day and most of her commute. Doesn't miss it at all - in fact she still has an old style clamshell phone. My 18 yr old uses hers as an alarm, as a navigator, to take pictures at concerts and music festivals (and even those have sketchy cell service) - not much else.
