Are the following sentences correct?
Hi everybody! Can someone help me with the following sentences?
- "Nowadays I think we can no longer blame television for the lack of communication among people" (I know that it's "blame on someone for something", but I don't know how to say this sentence correctly)
- "It has happened to all of us where we have met friends to have a drink and observed (or "have seen" if you want to sound less formal) how everybody was paying attention to their cell phone."
-" All depends on what the use you may make with it" (I am not 100% sure I understand your original intended meaning: There is a set phrase in English 'what you make of it' Did you intend to use that?)
- "I recognize that I don't have a close relationship with my dad. However, it's when we watch together the news together, that we find a topic to talk about and we are able to establish a connection (alternatively you could say "we are able to communicate") more than at any other time of the day."
Thank you in advance :)
*Nice job!

Hi everybody! Can someone help me with the following sentences?
- "Nowadays I think we can no longer blame television for the lack of communication among people" (I know that it's "blame on someone for something", but I don't know how to say this sentence correct) It can be said: We cannot blame it on TV anymore.
- "What happened to all of us was that we met friends to have a drink and observed how everybody was paying attention to their cell phones." There might be other ways of course.
-" It all depends on how you use it." Or it all has to with how you make use of it.
- "I recognize that I don't have a close relationship with my dad. However, it's when we watch the news together that we find a topic to talk about and we are able to establish communication more than any other time of the day."
Thank you in advance :)
I'm sure native speakers will be able to help you more but I couldn't resist sharing my suggestions :)
