Janice BruceGUEST
So what happens in the cafeteria is the kids are sitting together, right? When you have a cellphone, you are single user, you are on your own, and the only thing that matters is what's in front of you in your hands.

Janice BruceGUEST
When you now have, um, just humans [laughs] interacting, right, you have groups of kids.

Janice BruceGUEST
So it makes sense that the kids are now seeing each other as people, and they are interacting, they are speaking to each other.

Janice BruceGUEST
You know, I spend time in the cafeteria also, along with some of my staff, and, uh, they have their games, they have their, you know, they have their disputes sometimes, but this is middle school.
