• The Internet can sometimes tear families apart
  but also helps families find ways to spend more
  time together.

• The article I found on the internet is a primary
  example of how the Internet distributes advice to
  parents in need.

• These are suggestions for parents to help them
  find ways to connect with their children.

• Online chatting has created an opportunity for
  children and their parents to talk long distance.
  
  
• Some parents have found it more effective to talk
  to their children through webcams and instant
  messaging instead of phones.
  
• Kids can visit their other parent over holidays
  but in between that time, kids and their parents
  can opt for online chatting.

• Sometimes, online communication doesnt suffice
  for the parent or child. Webcams can malfunction
  and it can create frustration for the parent and
  child.
• Though this does happen on occasion, the
  technology has improved and now there are hardly
  any problems.
  
• Online communication between a parent and child
  cannot match up to actual visits, but its good
  to have online communication between times of
  visits.

10

• Parent-child conversations online may not be as
  bad as people would perceive them to be.
  
• Therapists have found that it is easier for
  children to talk about difficult subjects to
  their parents online than in person.
  
• Psychologists have found that instant messaging
  breaks interpersonal barriers between parent and
  child that are usually present when they talk in
  person.

11

• Online chatting gives an amount of anonymity so a
  parent cannot see their child turn red or cry
  when they talk about embarrassing things.
  
• Though the Internet is a great way to break a
  talking barrier, psychologists warn families to
  not rely on the Internet as their main mode of
  communication.
