phenomenon.

First

and foremost, our current lifestyle is developing in a dynamic way that high living costs and hectic lifestyle push them to overwork at the expense of the time they are supposed to spend with family members.

This

influences especially children's upbringing that at an early age they need more care and attention.

However

, on parents' tight daily schedule only a few minutes are separated for caring for their offsprings because they are busy with their hurry-scurries. Because of inattention, youngers take the wrong road. The

second

reason is that addiction to social networks is more than necessary. Since the internet has been revolutionised, the majority navigate it either for entertainment or for work and education. Every family member tends to spend their leisure time browsing via social media which is to blame for the strong addiction forcing almost all family members to opt for socializing online rather than offline.

In conclusion, I am in favour of strengthening family bonds via gathering in a family circle and balancing time with family as lessening family dinners are causing harmful impacts on habits and the future of the young generation.
