Social networks and confinement, a real impact on families

Abstract

The various lockdowns linked to the Covid-19 epidemic have modified the use of communication tools, the Internet and social networks. In the context of the walk-in clinic or the child psychiatric evaluation interviews conducted at the Maison des adolescents of the Cochin Hospital in Paris, families were able to discuss the difficulties arising from this new use. Certain transgenerational, cultural and usual misunderstandings were discussed.
