Television and the Decline of the Family Unit : A 5 page
paper that discusses how the common use of the television
has, for the most part, pulled many families further apart.
Television has become a very regular part of our society and
more importantly, of our family life. We prefer to sit and

teach us about ourselves and our family. Bibliography lists 4
