Now we generally see that communication and social interaction in the family is not as warm as it used to be. This is inseparable from the development of today's increasingly modern era.

The birth of various kinds of social media that provide various kinds of rides, so that some family members are too busy with their own world (media), and this is what I'm currently experiencing.

What should I do to overcome a situation like this.

Social media has its benefits and disadvantages. There are some social media platforms that can enlighten thier users and make them get profitable information or knowledge. But the rate of social media addiction among mostly youths is becoming alarming. If your family members are below 16, it is important to monitor the way they access social media. If possible they should have restricted access to the internet.

The only way to reduce the rate of social media addiction among teenager that are above 16 is through education and awareness about the consequences of spending so much time on social media. This is because they can always look for ways to access these platforms even if you block these platforms in the router. They can be introduced to some other activities that can be beneficial such as learning a musical instruments or a new language.
