Nowadays, adolescents are inclined to spend the majority of their
time
 with their friends rather than their family
members
. Not only will

 to occur but it will
also
 explain my reasons why I believe
parents
 should forcibly make their
children
 spend more
time
 at home. The technological era and the fast-paced world that people live in these days have made the gap between generations grow large. To illustrate, youngsters usually opt to live in the virtual world of social media,
such
 as Facebook, and electronic games, in which, they can find peers with mutual interests that they may not find with their family
members
.
In addition
, most millennial
parents
 work for extended hours in order to fulfil the needs of their families;
therefore
, they do not get free
time
 to integrate themselves into their
children
’s lives. If the gap between fosters and
children
 is large, the chances of
children
’s alienation will increase between them. In my perspective, being of a dire impact on all family
members
,
parents
 ought to oblige the
children
 to devote more
time
 to family in order to bridge the mentioned gap.
Firstly
,
children
 are more susceptible to negative social media peer pressure if they spend most of their
time
 on the Internet without proper supervision, which may lead to deviation in their morals, as per several studies by human development specialists. Another impact, many hours staying away from
parents
 can cause bonds between family
members
 to weaken, and
this
 may breed crime among
children
 due to lack of guidance. To conclude, the widespread trend of
children
 sparing more
time
 with friends might be attributable to the distance in interests and lack of
time
, and I opine that forcing
children
 to spend more
time
 with their families is of utmost importance.
