Are you one of those that get disgusted when people are on their phones in a restaurant?

If so, you'll be glad to hear that there are some restaurants looking to curb phone use for families while enjoying a meal.  A British restaurant chain is running a "no phone zone" promotion that will allow kids to eat for free if the parents ditch the phone. Another restaurant has a "phone-discouraging initiative" asking that patrons put their phone in a box while enjoying their meal.  All this comes about after a survey of 1500 parents and children revealed that a quarter of parents check their phones during "family meal time" and 23% of the parents were on the phone while kids were talking about their day!

Are you guilty of being on the phone a lot during dinner time? Do you feel that restaurants should ban phone use?
