prompt: Sum up what the following article says about why Americans are experiencing a “friendship recession.”
  
  So it is alarming that Americans are experiencing a “friendship recession.”
  
  The startling decline of friendship
  Modern living is tough on friendship.Unlike our ancestors who knew everyone in their tribe, most people now live in cities where the default is anonymity. As children and young adults, school may provide a social community. Indeed, the number of friends people have peaks around age 25, but then substantially drops around age 30, when work and the nuclear family take over.
  
  Americans, especially those who are highly educated and high-earning, work longer hours and are more likely to move for work than ever before. Parents also spend twice as much time with their children than previous generations. This saps the ability to maintain close friendships.
  
  The last decade has seen a startling further fall in the number and quality of friendships.
