What Happened To Family?

I was taught growing up, that you should ALWAYS be there for family, no matter what! You never disrespect family members.

Thanks to social media, and those who post about their business. I have noticed no one takes family seriously anymore. This girl was calling her sister and mother all kinds of vulgar things, because she wasn't happy with them. Really? On Facebook?! Let alone calling them such names? I would never do that to my mother or siblings.

My few family members who spreads rumors and lies about my mother! That makes me beyond livid. We are family, what is wrong with you!?

I see parents who would rather party than be with their child. I could never do that to my child! Your child should be your priority.

I see parents who will toss their children at anyone to watch, so they can get a "break." Are you kidding me?! You need a break? Occasionally wanting to go out, I get that but constantly asking for someone to watch your child because you don't want to be around your child! Wtf...

Family members who barely know each other and add each other on social media and randomly like your posts. Communication is barely a thing anymore.

Kids barely know what family time is anymore because technology has taken over! It is getting ridiculous.

My parents raised me to be there for family. No matter what the circumstances are. I would give my shirt off my back for my family. If they need to vent, I will be there. They need help? I will help. I take family very seriously.

I am not implying all families are like this BUT there is a growing number of those who are. I think people need to figure out what family really is...
