Abstract:
The tsunami of technological advancement, the overt pressure to achieve one’s materialistic goals and declining work-life balance are some of the reasons of poor dialogues in families. The advent of frozen communication due to excessive use of technologies is leading to insensitivities and a slow-death of empathetic and open communication in many families. The dysfunctional communication patterns are having negative impact on relationships in families. This paper through in-depth interviews of families argues on the emergent need to reframe the communication ecosystems, encourage cyberfasting, and take up joint activities amongst family members. Through such efforts, the aim would be elaborate on a dialogical family nonviolent communication approach.
