Top Tweets of the Week: July 28-Aug. 3

For mothers of teenagers who never look away from their smartphone screens, though, you may have enjoyed those 45 minutes of face-to-face contact. Or maybe you were too busy washing the dog to notice!

8yo & I took goofy pix in photo booth. Keeping copy as proof of my coolness for when she's sullen teen & realizes I'm a dork. — Jennifer (@pinkmenotmom) July 28, 2014
