A primary school in the UK has put up signs to warn phone-obsessed parents. Parents should greet their children with a smile at the end of the day rather than staring at their screens. It has become a common sight at the school gates: children are running up to their parents, but their parents are composing a text message, a phone call or scrolling through Facebook. Now the headmistress at St Joseph's RC Primary School(圣约瑟夫罗马天主教小学), in Middlesbrough(米德尔斯堡), has put up the signs at all three gates. The signs say:" Greet your child with a smile, not a mobile." They feature a figure with a mobile to their ear, crossed out in a red circle.
