It is nearly impossible to eavesdrop on someone’s phone call now, as mobile phones were much more secure than the shared home phones we used to deal with. Kids nowadays will never know the joys we had, listening in on our annoying older sisters and teasing her about what we heard. But then again, kids nowadays will probably never get tangled up in the phone cord and get yelled at to get off the phone because someone needed to use the internet, either.
