Forbidding the creation and use of Game Apps

Games and recreational activities have been around, well, forever. But with modern technology these activities have been transformed from socially engaging to impatient reflexes. Your classic iPhone apps like Candy Crush, Temple Run, and Angry Birds aren't for amusement anymore. Society uses them to avoid social confrontations at all cost, at dinner, on the train, even waiting in line for coffee. According to Flurry Analytic, 49% of U.S. mobile app consumption is in gaming. This consumption is taking the place of our opportunities to engage with each other, make new friends, make some day a little better. So instead of interacting with our neighbors, our noses are in our phones, trying to knock down a tower of green pigs. Our social skills are deteriorating, you rarely hear a "Hello" or a "Good morning" as you walk by, and I believe this a largely because of these apps that take over our lives and become our priorities. They should therefore have no place in everyday life, so at least some of our day could be shared with others.
