Nowadays more and more people are spending less time at home. Why do you think it happens? What effect does this have on individuals and the society?
Most people spend more their
time
outside rather than indoors. This
is mainly because of longer working hours and emphasizing individualism. This
has a negative impact on a lack of communication between family members, but it also have
a positive impact on society Suggestion
also has
such
as boosting the economy.
People are working longer hours than ever before and they do not have time
to spend at home
. Some people do not only work
overtime on weekdays, but also
work
on weekends. This
is because the world has become borderless
due to the development of means of transportation and the Internet, and competition among companies has become intense. For example
, one of my friends who work
in IT company, catches the first
train to go to company in the morning and take the last
train to get home
after work
. He spends only six hours at home
, leaving less time
for family. Thus
, people who live in such
a global society, spend most of time
at their workplace.
Another reason for spending less time
at home
is that the importance of individualism is increasing. People value pursuing their own goals and dreams. Chasing our dream often investing more of our time
in study or work
. For example
, my friend’s son who want to be a lawyer in the future spend most of his time
studying at school. Studying at school until 10:00p.m., he eats out with friends every day. This
often results in spending less time
at home
because they put more value on fulfilling their own dream.
The decrease in time
spent at home
has both positive and negative effects, including an increase in family lacking communication and economic expansion. Regarding negative impacts on individuals, family conversations may decrease since they do not have enough time
to spend together. In some cases, it leads to divorce and juvenile delinquency. However
, there are also
some positive effects. As people spend more time
outside, they have more opportunities to spend money, which has an economic effect. Some people would eat out, others would spend money learning new things. In this
way, less time
people spend at home
has both positive and negative effects on individuals and society.
In conclusion, people spend less time
at home
due to an increased workload and individualism. As it has both positive and negative impacts on our life, there is a need for us to be conscious about finding a healthy balance between the time
spent at home
and outside.Submitted by yuko.yamazaki914 on
