Face to face chats falling foul of tablet talk as devices take over our homes

Families increasingly using tablets and smartphones to stay in touch - even when they are in the same house


.


ALMOST a third of families talk to each other on tablets or smartphones when they are in the same house.


People use gadgets to ask for help with ­homework and to say when dinner is ready, with 9% speaking on video rather than face to face.

Almost half of their use takes place in the living room.
