A British comedian's tweet about his son staring at his phone instead of admiring the beauty around him has struck a chord with fellow parents sharing similar snaps. David Baddiel, 53, shared a picture of his son completely absorbed on his phone, oblivious to the beauty of nature around him. He captioned the photo with: 'My son, hypnotised and overawed as ever by the beauty of nature.' The tweet, which has racked up more than 19,000 likes, has attracted plenty of practically identical photos of teenagers who are seemingly more interested in their phone screen than the outside world.
