One day, you will wish to be able to hear the voice of a loved one
Philosophically speaking (Kant)
Kant’s Categorical
Imperative
The first (Universal
Law formulation): "Act only on that maxim through which you can at the
same time will that it should become a universal law."
The second (Humanity or End in Itself formulation): "Act in
such a way that you always treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the
person of any other, never simply as a means, but always at the same time as an
end."
Permitting technology to interfere with genuine conversation among humans and especially loved ones is lacking human empathy and, especially again, when one prefers to text than to talk; and often become annoyed when they have to talk with someone on the phone
