I am clearly not understanding this generation.
Same thing with my 15 yr old granddaughter---I have heard her answer her phone and then say "text me!" There is so much drama with friends, etc., at her age and I think it is because they keep in constant touch--they can respond "instantly" to something without thinking about it and sometimes it causes issues with friends, etc.
