Cultural Shifts in Community Involvement

The world that we live in today is a completely different than the world that our parents grew up in. One example of this difference is the lack of community involvement. It seems that no one has any time anymore to join a bowling league or be in a bridge club anymore. Everyone is too caught up in their own life and they don't have time to spare for anyone else. Considering how dangerous the world can be today the lack of trust among people has grown tremendously. It only makes sense that people have become more aware of who they come into contact with. Lastly the use of technology facilitates communication without actually being face to face. There's no longer a need to have a bowling league to catch up with friends when you can text, video chat or talk on the phone.
