As it turns out, while you think your kids are addicted to that darn phone, they think the same thing of you.

MarketWatch is reporting that 39% of teenagers wish their parents would get off that doggone phone. 38% of the teens say they think that Mom and Dad are addicted to their mobile devices. And that's not all.

45% of parents say 'Yep, I am. I'm addicted'. More than half of parents admit they spend too much time on the smartphone.

Read the article here and it might open your eyes, whether you're a Mom or Dad, or if you're a teen. It seems like 'technology addiction' knows no age.

So the next time you're just about ready to tell that kid to 'Get off that phone!', stop for a minute.

And don't be checking your smartphone.
