Does the thought of being without your iPhone or Droid send waves of panic through your body? If so, you might have "nomophobia" (no-mobile-phone-phobia).

But on the day she gave birth to twins in July -- one boy and one girl -- she was shocked to find her friend had gone to the court, asking to be named the sole parent of children.
