Responsible parenting in the digital age involves more than simply installing parental controls and setting screen time restrictions for kids.

This isn’t about the kids alone.

Andy Crouch uses extensive primary research conducted by the Barna Group to demonstrate to his audience that the technological decisions we make have repercussions we may not have anticipated. By asking deeper questions like “Who do we want to be as a family?” he forces readers to think beyond the usual what, where, and when. and In what ways does our adoption of a certain technology bring us closer to or farther from that objective? This book offers hope to everyone who has seen their personal ties with loved ones deteriorate or their time with them erode as a result of technological distractions.

“The Big Disconnect: Protecting Childhood and Family Relationships in the Digital Age” by Catherine Steiner-Adair (Rated 4.5/5 with 128 global ratings as of 28/05/2023)

The Internet and the digital revolution are dramatically altering childhood and family interactions, and clinical psychologist Catherine Steiner-Adair examines these shifts in detail and provides parents strategies for guiding their children safely through this new digital landscape. Families nowadays are more likely to use technology than interact with one another in person.

Our kids are getting more out of films and TV than they are out of school. The Internet and social media have made it easier for children to be exposed to the negative features of adulthood. Even more so than their children, parents are heavily enmeshed in the online world. Parents are increasingly absent from their children’s life due to their preoccupation with electronic media, whether it be endlessly conversing or texting on cellphones or working in front of computer displays. Meanwhile, young people want for deeper connections with both their peers and the adults in their life. Even though we are more connected than ever before and have access to an infinite amount of information at our fingertips, many parents worry that they are losing control of their homes and their children by relying so heavily on instant messaging and other forms of digital communication.

Catherine Steiner-Adair, a clinical psychologist, demonstrates that these constant interruptions might have far-reaching consequences. While kids don’t need adult supervision 24/7, they do benefit from the kind of genuine relationships that can’t be fostered by a screen. Steiner-Adair draws on anecdotes from her clinical and consulting experience to provide guidance that may help parents navigate the digital revolution happening in their own homes with more knowledge, authority, and confidence.

Steiner-Adair contends that we have the chance to provide for our families and to safeguard and prepare our children for meaningful life in the digital era, which is here to stay, if we look at the world with new eyes, an open mind, and the resolve to act on what we see and learn.

New users of texting, gaming, and social media often struggle with concerns of friendship and self-identity; this book provides guidance for easing such transitions.
