Nowadays families are not as close as they used to be. What do you think are the causes of this? What can be done to make families closer?
In
this
globalisation era, there are so many families
who tend to spend their lives for livelihood rather than engage with their family members. In my perspective, there are two reasons for this
phenomenon, which are workaholic and time
management.
To begin
with, it is undeniable that there is so much professional work
that consumes more time
. In this
digitalisation era, people
are getting easy to do their work
at home
by utilising an internet connection. That is
the reason why, humankind nowadays is still busy even when they have arrived home
but still do their assignments. For example
, a workaholic father has finished his work
hours and going back to his home
. Right after he arrives, he continues the tasks that are not completed yet in his house rather than spending time
with his wife and children.
In addition
, time
management is another factor that has become a barrier for families
to get closer to each other. It is commonly believed that every family have a special time
when they are required to gather together for some occasions such
as birthday party, wedding party, and Christmas day. However
, some people
are not able to manage their time
to visit their family in a particular event. For instance
, a student who studies overseas at a different time
to their hometown will find it hard to allocate his/her time
for family special events which is expected to strengthen family bonding.
In conclusion, it is obvious that people
nowadays find it hard to distinguish their professional and personal lives. They are likely to mix their work
and family errands. Consequently
, more and more people
become workaholics and at the same time
neglect the bonding of their families
. Nevertheless
, it can be avoided by respecting each family member and allocating time
to build close relations between families
at home
