Today within contemporary society, it is easy to develop an obsession with a lack of connection because keeping within your own space means people provide you with that sense of safety and security whereby people are not looking down on you nor criticising your life choices. Nevertheless, as you have stated above, there are so many negative factors to having a lack of connection, especially since the development of media platforms. I remember growing up when a child would cry in public, mothers or fathers would play with their child or sing to them, whereas, within today's world, parents forget to communicate with their children and place technology in their hands as a soothing method to calm them before people within community stairs at them.
