Parents are rightfully confused about how their children should be interacting with social media, gaming and devices. Catherine Knibbs provides a much-needed and refreshingly balanced viewpoint in offering practical advice for technology use. Tech-Smart Parenting moves away from salacious fear-mongering about a lost generation, and instead offers an essential, clear-eyed view about the promises and perils of youth tech use and how parents can feel empowered and informed. Tech-Smart Parenting should be a go-to book for those looking for a pragmatic approach to parenting in the digital age.

An essential, expert (and overdue) guide for any parent worried about how tech is affecting their children, but wanting to rely on science instead of paranoia.
