#people #work #hours #time #leisure #activities #dose #situation
In these recent years,
people
 claim that they working under a major hour per day and have minimal
hours
 for social life. As they found that they have no time for their family and friends. I agree to a certain that working for a long period of time does impact our personal life. In the following paragraphs, I will explain my personal opinions towards these issues.
To begin
 with, now
people
 have long operating days,
people
 tend to
work
 up to 9 to 12
hours
 a day.
Due to
 their commitments,
people
 have more mortgages, expenses and desires o their life. For instants, nowadays we can see that everyone should have a car, house, luxury branded accessories and communications devices.
While
 all these assets have become a burden for them because they need to pay the bills to fulfilled their desire. These ideas have become a motivation for
people
 to commit to working long
hours
 and get more income. These are the advantage for
people
 able to
work
 long
hours
 to fulfil their dreams.
On the other hand
, if everyone in the family committed to long working
hours
, it will impact their family bonding issues.
For example
, if families have younger and teenage children, they need more attention on their development stages. As their parents
work
 for a long period of time these will make the young population have attachment concerns and don't able to shape their identity, because they don't have a security person to go to when problems occur.
Consequently
, it impacted family bonding and they do not entitle to a sense of security with their families.
To sum up
,
people
 who long for long
hours
 should find a balance between
work
 and leisure, because the merit and demerit of these could impact their personal activity. From my point of view, I still believe to a certain degree that working for a long period of the term to brings some advantages to society.
