Question

What is the context of "Turning Off, Dining In"?

Answer 1

The context is that even while having dinner together the family cannot keep out other things which disrupt the family time. In "Turning Off, Dining In," the writer says that the family members are getting disconnected from each other due to technology such as phones and other electronic devices.This prevents the family to socialise among themselves as they constantly feel the need to use their phones to stay in touch with other people or for other purposes. The writer wrote this as he saw this happening in his own family.
