Barry is talking with his wife Cheryl about his parents. You know, I think it is great that Mom and Dad are getting more familiar with the Internet, but it is strange that they are both spending time on Facebook every day. I'm worried that their real friendships are going to suffer as they spend more time on a social networking website.. Cheryl, having read your textbook, would probably respond by saying
a. That is a common concern, but don't worry. Research hasn't found support for this fear..
b. The research has found that Facebook and other such sites are actually more damaging to friendships of those between 25 and 45 years of age than to older adults..
c. This is a really good point, as the research has found that online friendships are really damaging to real-life friendships..
d. I really think you should talk to your parents about this, because research has found that while younger people don't have any problems, older folks who use social networking sites tend to become isolated and separated from their real friends..
