Family Estrangement Described as a Growing Epidemic
Original: Family estrangement called epidemic
Writers and commentators are describing family estrangement as an epidemic, arguing that cutting off parents or relatives has become increasingly common, particularly in Western countries. The discussion covers causes such as political divides, boundaries, therapy culture and social media, with some defending estrangement as self-protection and others warning it signals a wider breakdown in family bonds.
Why now: Ongoing cultural debate over rising rates of people cutting ties with family members, fueled by recent commentary and studies on the topic.
