- Results revealed that the more time an individual spent on social media the more
likely they were to experience a negative impact on their overall emotional
wellbeing and decreased quality in their relationships
- Emotional well-being also mediated the relationship between time spent using
social media and the quality of that user’s relationships, meaning that the more
time a person spent on social media the more likely their emotional wellbeing
declined which then negatively impacted their relationships.
- The results from H1a revealed that the more time an individual spent on social
media the more the quality of their relationships decreased. This supports
findings by Kerkhof et al. (2011) who also found that those with high compulsive
Internet use experienced decreased offline relationship quality
- social media use offers more negative consequences than benefits (Christensen)
- The Internet is in fact the latest mode of communication and socialization and it is
reducing face-to-face or telephone contact. On the other hand Internet is
widening the gap among individuals by isolating them and reducing the time
spent participating in social activities. (Khalid)
- Unfortunately people become addicted to the social media and the number is
growing each day. It is possible for any addict to have direct impact on the family,
because members of the family may experience isolation when an addict is
obsessively using social media they become quickly disengaged with their
surroundings.
- In our modern Day today, the social media has taken over the good and cordial
relationship among family members, where parents has no intimate relationship
with their children because everybody have developed relationship on phone with
friends. The beautiful time that one is supposed to spend with the family is
already taken away by social media.
Parents no longer have time for their children instead of them to sit and talk with
them they leave them with social media which have both negative and positive
side on them.
- The negative effects of social media on the family cannot be over emphasized as
it is clearly seen in most Nigerian home that parents that spend much time on
social media spend less with their families and also children that spend much
time on social media are tend to have bad behavior.(Balami)
- As social beings, it is natural for us to want to connect with those around us and
social media has certainly made it easier to do so (Christensen)
- technology can be used to keep families connected. It can help members keep
track of schedules, location, and a sense of security between members that
parents and/or children can be reached immediately if needed.
- Researchers are finding that individuals communicate more often with family and
friends due to technology, but the style and type of communication is potentially
weaker [7]. (Ekern)
Recommendations:
- these media services should be used with caution.
- ? This may require taking a break from social media for a short while and taking
inventory of our lives in order to better see what needs social media has been
gratifying and then to make the choice of either continuing to use social media to
fill those needs to or to find alternative sources of gratification that are more
lasting. (Christensen)
- The results infer that internet itself is not a problem, problem occurs when people
use it in a wrong way. Internet could turn into a socially isolating tool if people
utilize it to avoid face to face contact with social capital and to escape from the
real world real world relations and activities. (Khalid)
- In order to amend this, parents are expected to plan their schedule and spend
more time with their children and children should also avoid sites and chat
groups that are not helpful to them. (Balami)
- Don’t use social media as a negative point of comparison for your relationship.
- Spend time nurturing your relationship. “Do things that create closeness in
your relationship,” encourages Adamson, “and do them regularly without
distraction.” (NCU)

I. Your Argument
A. Social media is a great factor that distracts the people in nurturing family
relationships.
1. Social media may promote communication, but it is also a tool that
hinders users to interact and initiate conversation in person.
a. According to Macleighob (2018), one out of five persons
admitted they learned what their family members were doing by
checking their statuses online, not by asking them personally—
even though they might be sitting in the next room.
b. A study on media influence by the Kaiser Family Foundation
shows that young people are not allocating their time in
communicating with their families or getting involved in intimate
relationships due to extensive use of social media.
c. Social media is widening the gap among individuals by creating
zero interaction between siblings, couples, or parent-child.
d. Parents nowadays, has no intimate relationship with their
children because everybody has developed relationship on
phone with friends.
A. 1. = Social media may promote communication, but it is also a tool that hinders users
to interact and initiate conversation in person.
