How to use distracting in a sentence?

  1. Russ Rader:

    There's no question that texting while driving is distracting and dangerous, unfortunately, we have no evidence that these laws reduce crashes.

  2. Meghan Day:

    Hibernation and isolation can feed a depressed mood, surround yourself with friends, even if you don't feel like it. Not only are you distracting yourself from your possibly blue thoughts, but being out with others provides you with opportunities for pleasure and joy.

  3. Mark Walker:

    There has been some roller coasters this week, of course it's been distracting. I'm happy to share that whoever's fault it is ... any time you're dealing with this much stuff, you are having to spend energy, time and resources, which means by proxy it is a distraction from the other things you're doing.

  4. Susan Collins:

    Clearly, the administration needs to take stock of its operations and the President needs to do a far better job of understanding the differences among the three branches of government -- what's appropriate, what isn't appropriate, he needs to ask for advice from his advisers and he needs to listen to that advice. We're four months into this new administration, little over that, and he needs to right the ship. We cannot have this constant chaos and serious questions being raised virtually every single day. It is distracting from the ability to work on certain issues like health care reform, and the administration needs to get its house in order.

  5. Elaine Taylor-Klaus:

    Spinners are visually distracting, and they can make some noise, so it's not an ideal fidget for the classroom. But still, not allowing them in schools is probably throwing the baby out with the bath water.
