The rise of social media affects the way people form and maintain relationships, and this is quite easy to recognize. Social media can help people connect with others from a distance, like from Vietnam to the US. However, real-life relationships, such as the relationship between a mom and her children, have become less deep than before because people focus more on virtual relationships that they make online instead of those with the people they interact with in reality.
