The current study drives at identifying the reflections of technological progress on performance of the kinship system regarding its role in fulfilling duties of social responsibilities. The study sample consists of (200) researches divided into two samples of the study population, one sample represents the urban community and the other represents the Bedouin community. This study relies on the sample-social survey method which is the most appropriate for descriptive-analytical type of studies.
The study concludes to several results which most eminent is that there are significant statistical differences among study axes as follows:

The impact of technological progress on social communication with family and relatives: There are significant statistical differences between (urban and Bedouin communities) regarding their communication style, in favor of the urban sample, with average (92.5%), in return of (86.5%) for the Bedouin sample which is valuable and statistically significant at (0.01) significance level, denoting the impact of the technological progress on the urban community more than the Bedouin one.
The impact of technological progress on kinship system performance towards its social responsibility: There are significant statistical differences between (urban & Bedouin communities), in favor of the urban community organizations sample, with average (90.4%), in return of (86%) for the Bedouin sample, as the (CR) value is (3.05) which is valuable and statistically significant at (0.01) significance level, denoting the positive impact of the technological progress on the individual’s performance of his social responsibilities towards his kinship relatives.

The study recommends the necessity for supporting direct social relationships between the members of the extended families and not limiting interaction among family members on technological communication.
