Smartphones Are Breaking Families | US News

Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Description

As America heads toward its 250th birthday, a new book warns of a deepening crisis: marriage and family are collapsing, threatening our future. Smartphones, especially since 2007, have hijacked human connection, eroding intimacy and family bonds. Marriages have plummeted from over 2 million in 2000 to just under 2 million in 2021, while single-parent households surge—with Black children disproportionately affected. Authors Tim Goeglein and Craig Osten don’t offer magic solutions, but call for simple, powerful steps: family meals, smartphone bans for teens, and restoring men as pillars of home and guidance. The message? Reclaim real connection—before society fractures further.
