Abstract
The present study tries to find out the impact
of social media on interaction of teenagers with their family members and
friends. For this purpose, data have been collected from six schools of Deoghar
district. Eight close ended questions based on interactions with family members
such as time spent on social media, interactions with siblings, parents, relatives
and friends; sharing online personal feelings, taking joy of family life, social
media addiction while attending family ceremonies etc were asked from them.
Data have been analysed to find out the impact of social media on interactions
of teenagers with their family members and friends. It
has been observed that social media appears to negatively affect family life in
some areas, such as reducing family enjoyment, increasing distraction while
sitting with family, and creating detachment from family responsibilities.
However, it does not show a clear decrease in interactions with siblings,
parents, relatives or friends
