what is a landline

What is a land line? I asked twenty-seven third graders. None of them knew, it was an antiquated term in 2022. I told them that if they had phones that stayed in one spot… That is a landline, we used to have them all over, believe it or not. They did not believe me. They thought I was teasing them. They could not imagine a phone attached by cord to a wall. She is not fibbing, we used to have them in homes said Jim. They are pretty spoiled, these eight-year-olds, three feet tall.
