My mom is addicted to her cell phone?

[cara]

My mom over the months has become attached to her cell phone she litterally cannot put it down, she carries a charger EVERYWHERE. I am way embarrased to go anywhere with her, she texts in movie theatres, restraunts, family gatherings. Just the other day we were at a baby shower for my cousin and my whole family was there and she was on facebook on her phone and texting the whole time.... and she ran out of the room frantically because her phone was going dead... I don't know what to do.. because she gets mad whenever someone brings anything up... But my highschool graduation is coming up and I really don't want to be humiliated.... Any advice?? Thanks in advance
I know it is common to use your phone a lot here in the u.s but my mom's use is over the top. She has no manners what so ever. I have not seen anyone like this, and I am a teenage girl in highschool.

It's common here in our country. It's annoying to see someone texting. Instead of telling your mom,just tell your dad he will attend the high school graduation for you.

I think that most of us are now addicted to our cell phones and smartphones and electronic devices. there is a dopamine rush in the brain when you look at your phone and send or receive messages. we don't know what the outcome of this new behavior is going to result in. 1 thing is for sure, it is changing the way we live our lives.

as far as your mom's addiction, one thing I have learned is you can't control what other people are going to do.

Please don't feel hesitant to ask any question about it. Otherwise, strictly observe what is going on. You will surely come to know everything in life when that ideal and opportune time comes. Because time is the best teacher. Pl. wait and have sufficient patience till you become fully aware.
