Abstract :

The future of all countries relies on the correct use of these networks.Nowadays, the influence of internet and social networks on all layers of the society is evidence and thereby the main purpose of this research is to study the use of these networks by women who are the half of the population of our country.The role of women in culture development of the society and upbringing of generation is obvious. Therefore, this study discusses about the destruction and construction roles of these networks on women.In this study, the data collection is based on semi-structured interviews and snowball sampling. In addition, the data analysis relies on grounded theory. The results highlights the influence of social networks on all the aspects of a family, which cannot be reduced by filtering. However, this influence can be exploited as an opportunity instead of a threat by produce useful contents that can improve the scientific, cultural and religious knowledge level of women who are the main educators of our generations.In addition, this study shows that, despite the negative vision of most researchers to the social networks effects, in most cases, both married and divorced women believe that the positive and constructive dimensions of these networks are more important than their negative effects. Finally, the idea of filtering or limiting the cyberspace does not help to eliminate the potential disadvantage of this world, in contrary, it only erases the question rather than solve it.
