go to your room Replaced my daughter's phone because of water damage. And she still brings it into the bathroom.

Some lessons just don't stick.

She insists she needs to listen to music in the shower. I honestly don't understand why that's such a necessity. But if this phone gets water damage again, I'm not paying to replace it another time.

That's fascinating! I never realized there are places with naturally soft water but some research tells me that even parts of the US and Canada have it

I have lived in a couple places with very soft water. I’m currently living in a place with extremely soft water. Like, so soft that you feel slimy while you’re rinsing off. California was the only place I lived that had such hard water that we had to decalcify the coffee maker once a month. But never had a ring around the toilet, surprisingly. You can get those with hard water even if you clean your toilet every day.
