is twofold;

firstly

, the invention of online social media sites and apps,

such

, an extensive study by Oxford University illustrated that nation who work, or study abroad and use applications like FaceTime and WhatsApp to chat with their families, are less likely to experience loneliness and feel out of the loop than those who do not. Consistent with
