Help! My brother is becoming one of those iPod people! email this discussion to a friend?

Mikkel1277 (44)9 months ago

Seriously, my brother carries and listens to his ipod where ever he goes, what ever he does. Making lunch in the kitchen.. ipod, on the computer...ipod, in the car...ipod, just walking around...ipod. I own an ipod also, but this is borderline addiction. I barely even talk to him anymore because he's always listening to his ipod. The whole family can be in the living room watching a movie cracking jokes and whatnot and it's like he's not even there, because he's can't hear us to interact, because ipod is there. If I do want to talk to him my options are to tap him on the shoulder and "interrupt" his ipod listening experience. It's starting to annoy. Any suggestions, or am I just being to sensitive.

Maybe hes going through something where the music juts soothes him and takes him to his own world and lets him escape from anything that mayb be bothering him. Idk maybe give it some time and see if he loosing the iPod sooner than later

thanks, there actually has been alot going on lately and forget that people deal with things in their own way, I will try to be understanding of his space and give it some time.

i think his ipod enjoyment is getting out of control. if someone is constantly listening to their ipod while in company then they either want to shut themselves off from contact or they are just being ignorant and insensitive.

try talking to him about it, with the ipod in another room!:)

thanks:) I will let him know that as a family we miss his interaction and although he needs his space and solitude, we need him. And it's hard to enjoy his company when he's completely distracting his playlist.
