A few years ago, I had an epiphany and shared it with my children. "You kids text instead of calling so you can just not respond. You really don't want to communicate with anyone." They just looked at me and said, "Duh, Mom." That's one of the reasons I don't text. I don't want to give my kids another opportunity to ignore me. This comic is from Jeff Lovfers at Don't Hit Save.

Social media and texting have significantly increased avenues for people to say whatever they want, whenever they want, however they want, without concerning themselves how it may be received. And the only obligation to check for responses is their own vanity.
The Ego is supplanted by the Id.
