Media Impact

In this time of era, social networking has been a major medium for us to connect to new and old friends. Myspace and Facebook became major online sources that people use to connect with other people via internet. Either its just connecting with family members or current acquaintances, it is very easy to find friends on these networks,even old time sweet hearts.

In 2009, Facebook was one of the many reasons for higher divorce rates. Old relationship rekindle because it is used as a social medium to catch up with old relationships.It allowed affairs to arise. Although it can be unintentional at first, but some people in current relationships forget the reasons why the communicate with old relationships. The reasons why Facebook is a cause for such divorce is assessed by this video.

Facebook can also be used as evidence in divorce courts.


I do not think that Facebook can be a main reason for divorce．I believe that marriage and relationship go into jeopardy because there are certain strains before the divorce. Facebook is just another social tool that catalyst the process of breaking relationships. I dont think Facebook should solely be a blame for divorce. Facebook is though another portal that increases chances for divorce rates.
