In mordern times, children are spending less time with their families and more time with their friends. 1. Why has this change occured? 2. Do you think parents should force their children to spend more time at home?

It has become more common that the amount of time children spend with their families is reduced in modern society. The trend primarily comes from a higher employment rate among women.
