A request to smartphone users

Nowadays, people use their smartphones to take mostly pictures. Whether they are on a car, bus, or train, they just keep 'clicking'. The reason why they take so many pictures is to post them on social media. Changing profile pictures, and posting photos, selfies, groupies and videos have become the new trend! No wonder, then, that people buy phones considering only the picture quality of the camera. My mother has also got this smart phone disease! Whenever we go on a trip outside the country, after coming back home, my mother immediately posts at least 20 to 30 pictures on Facebook. I am requesting all mobile phone users not to use their smartphones unnecessarily.
