Family Time season 5 episode 2, titled "Social Media Dad," follows the life of the Stallworth family as they navigate the challenges of modern-day parenting. In this episode, Tony Stallworth, played by Omar Gooding, is eager to improve his presence on social media in order to boost his fatherhood image.
Tony spends most of his time scrolling through social media, checking out other dads' posts and trying to figure out how to create content that will make him look like the perfect father. However, his obsession with social media ends up causing conflicts with his wife Lisa, played by Angell Conwell.
Lisa believes that Tony is not present enough in their family's life, and instead spends most of his time focused on taking pictures and crafting social media posts. She argues with Tony about the importance of being present in their children's lives and points out that social media should not be his top priority.
Tony eventually realizes that Lisa is right and that his behavior has been negatively affecting his relationship with his family. He learns that being present and engaged with his children is more important than trying to impress strangers online.
Meanwhile, their daughter Ebony, played by Jayla Calhoun, has her own social media drama to deal with. She is trying to gain more followers on Instagram but is struggling to find the right content to post. Her brother, Devin, played by Bentley Kyle Evans Jr., helps her come up with the perfect post that goes viral, but Ebony soon realizes that the attention comes with its own set of problems.
Overall, "Social Media Dad" explores the dangers of being too obsessed with social media and the importance of being present in one's family's life. It also highlights the challenges of raising children in the digital age and the importance of teaching them how to navigate social media safely and responsibly.
