From the Back Cover
Learn how to navigate both harmful and healthy media--on everything from the big screen to the tiny screen you carry in your pocket.Revolutions in technology and media pose unique challenges to family life. How can parents guide their kids through the firestorm of information and entertainment constantly demanding our attention? The responsibility can feel overwhelming.
You may be tempted to take a strict, lock-it-down approach to media and technology. Or perhaps you are resigned--exhausted with the number of content, device, and technology options. Neither approach will prepare your kids for the real world. They need your help to define a middle path of thoughtful intentionality, engagement, and conversation.
Based on their years of experience examining social media, television, video games, music, and movies, the team at Plugged In has created Becoming a Screen-Savvy Family, the ultimate guide to help families establish wise, life-giving boundaries while offering direction through the chaos of a media-obsessed world.
