Book excerpt: Screenwise offers a realistic and optimistic perspective on how to thoughtfully guide kids in the digital age. Many parents feel that their kids are addicted, detached, or distracted because of their digital devices.

Using the foundation of their own values and experiences, parents and educators can learn about the digital world to help set kids up for a lifetime of success in a world fueled by technology. Screenwise is a guide to understanding more about what it is like for children to grow up with technology, and to recognizing the special challenges-and advantages-that contemporary kids and teens experience thanks to this level of connection. In it, Heitner presents practical parenting "hacks": quick ideas that you can implement today that will help you understand and relate to your digital native. The book will empower parents to recognize that the wisdom that they have gained throughout their lives is a relevant and urgently needed supplement to their kid's digital savvy, and help them develop skills for managing the new challenges of parenting. Based on real-life stories from other parents and Heitner's wealth of knowledge on the subject, Screenwise teaches parents what they need to know in order to raise responsible digital citizens.

Book Synopsis Screen Time in the Mean Time by : Tracy Bennett
Download or read book Screen Time in the Mean Time written by Tracy Bennett and published by . This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Screens are everywhere, all of the time. They make life easier in so many ways. But for parents, managing screen use is a huge challenge. For the first time in history, parenting is a full-time occupation. We are expected to faithfully care for and entertain our kids most of our waking hours, without complaint and with few supportive resources. It¿s simply not possible to keep kids busy all of the time. So, we allow them to play games, text, watch videos, facetime, and use social media¿too often. Even our toddlers beg to play on mobile tablets and smartphones. But we worry about it. We hear news stories that say screens are rewiring our brains and offering an unmonitored portal for sexual predators. We see that our kids are using screens compulsively, distracted from the real world. We worry that screens are a drug, and we¿ve enabled addictive behaviors by handing them over. But strict management just isn¿t possible considering our kids need screens for school, to interact with their friends, and for edutainment. What are we to do?Dr. Bennett is a clinical psychologist and founder of GetKidsInternetSafe. Having raised one young adult and still with two teens at home, she recognizes that screens are a necessary part of everyday family life. In her work with families for over twenty years, she has created sensible screen safety parenting hacks that work. Screen Time in the Mean Time is the thinking-parent¿s-guide to screen safety, written with a warm, relatable voice that is more practical than preachy. There are no scare tactics here. Instead, she offers a refreshingly real-world perspective on child and brain development and the risks and benefits of screen use. Her easily doable parenting strategies guide parents of toddlers to teens, step-by-step for confident screen management.
Book Synopsis Parenting for a Digital Future by : Sonia Livingstone
Download or read book Parenting for a Digital Future written by Sonia Livingstone and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the decades it takes to bring up a child, parents face challenges that are both helped and hindered by the fact that they are living through a period of unprecedented digital innovation. Drawing on extensive research with diverse parents, this book reveals how digital technologies give personal and political parenting struggles a distinctive character, as parents determine how to forge new territory with little precedent, or support. The book reveals the pincer movement of parenting in late modernity. Parents are both more burdened with responsibilities and charged with respecting the agency of their child-leaving much to negotiate in today's "democratic" families. The book charts how parents now often enact authority and values through digital technologies-as "screen time," games, or social media become ways of both being together and setting boundaries. The authors show how digital technologies introduce both valued opportunities and new sources of risk. To light their way, parents comb through the hazy memories of their own childhoods and look toward varied imagined futures. This results in deeply diverse parenting in the present, as parents move between embracing, resisting, or balancing the role of technology in their own and their children's lives. This book moves beyond the panicky headlines to offer a deeply researched exploration of what it means to parent in a period of significant social and technological change. Drawing on qualitative and quantitative research in the United Kingdom, the book offers conclusions and insights relevant to parents, policymakers, educators, and researchers everywhere"--

Book Synopsis Reset Your Child's Brain by : Victoria L. Dunckley, MD
Download or read book Reset Your Child's Brain written by Victoria L. Dunckley, MD and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2015-06-23 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing numbers of parents grapple with children who are acting out without obvious reason. Revved up and irritable, many of these children are diagnosed with ADHD, bipolar illness, autism, or other disorders but don’t respond well to treatment. They are then medicated, often with poor results and unwanted side effects. Based on emerging scientific research and extensive clinical experience, integrative child psychiatrist Dr. Victoria Dunckley has pioneered a four-week program to treat the frequent underlying cause, Electronic Screen Syndrome (ESS). Dr. Dunckley has found that everyday use of interactive screen devices — such as computers, video games, smartphones, and tablets — can easily overstimulate a child’s nervous system, triggering a variety of stubborn symptoms. In contrast, she’s discovered that a strict, extended electronic fast single-handedly improves mood, focus, sleep, and behavior, regardless of the child’s diagnosis. It also reduces the need for medication and renders other treatments more effective. Offered now in this book, this simple intervention can produce a life-changing shift in brain function and help your child get back on track — all without cost or medication. While no one in today’s connected world can completely shun electronic stimuli, Dr. Dunckley provides hope for parents who feel that their child has been misdiagnosed or inappropriately medicated, by presenting an alternative explanation for their child’s difficulties and a concrete plan for treating them.

Download or read book A Doubter's Almanac written by Ethan Canin and published by Random House. This book was released on 2016-02-16 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this mesmerizing novel, Ethan Canin, the author of America America and The Palace Thief, explores the nature of genius, rivalry, ambition, and love among multiple generations of a gifted family. Milo Andret is born with an unusual mind. A lonely child growing up in the woods of northern Michigan in the 1950s, he gives little thought to his own talent. But with his acceptance at U.C. Berkeley he realizes the extent, and the risks, of his singular gifts. California in the seventies is a seduction, opening Milo’s eyes to the allure of both ambition and indulgence. The research he begins there will make him a legend; the woman he meets there—and the rival he meets alongside her—will haunt him for the rest of his life. For Milo’s brilliance is entwined with a dark need that soon grows to threaten his work, his family, even his existence. Spanning seven decades as it moves from California to Princeton to the Midwest to New York, A Doubter’s Almanac tells the story of a family as it explores the way ambition lives alongside destructiveness, obsession alongside torment, love alongside grief. It is a story of how the flame of genius both lights and scorches every generation it touches. Graced by stunning prose and brilliant storytelling, A Doubter’s Almanac is a surprising, suspenseful, and deeply moving novel, a major work by a writer who has been hailed as “the most mature and accomplished novelist of his generation.” Praise for A Doubter’s Almanac “551 pages of bliss . . . devastating and wonderful . . . dazzling . . .
