  1. Texting maintains relationships but is less effective than phone conversation for building them.

    “It is not good for building a relationship necessarily over time. Like, if we're going to spend a half hour typing to each other, it's not a good way to spend that half hour. I'd be much better at picking the phone and talking to you to help establish that relationship.”

  2. Texting changes speech-related abilities rather than reducing them.

    “Texting is not decreasing the speech prowess or the intellectual prowess of speech. It's converting it and using it a lot in a different way”
