Samsung Says
Texting is Good for Teens and Parents
Parents of
teenage kids know that maintaining a close relationship can
be hard. The answer to this problem according to Samsung is
text messaging. Samsung conducted a survey of family text
messaging habits and found that texting broadened the lines
of
 communication for many parents and teens.
Over half of the respondents say that texting has improved
their relationship. The survey shows that the average teen
sends 455 text messages each month and receives an average
of 467 messages. The average parent receives 96 text
messages and sends 84 per month.
Samsung says that 6 out of 10 parents say that their kids
helped them become better texters. 68% of American parents
communicate with kids via text message. 56% of teens 13 to
19 say that they communicate more with their parents since
they began texting.
