This study sheds light on the impact of the new generation of social networks on Algerian women’s performance of their roles within the family, by identifying the positive and negative effects these networks have on women’s roles toward their families. To achieve the objectives of this descriptive study, a field survey was conducted on a sample of women who use social networking platforms. The main findings revealed that the respondents make extensive use of social networks, which has generated several effects on the way they perform their roles within their families. Among the positive effects is the use of advice and guidance provided on these platforms to care for the family and fulfill their roles appropriately. As for the negative effects, the most significant is spending long periods of time on these networks, which negatively affects the performance of their roles as well as disrupts family balance.
