Left to Their Own Devices?: Confident Parenting in a Digital World

By Katharine Hill

A revised and updated resource for parenting in the digital age

It's no secret that we live in an ever-changing digital landscape. Children and teens are growing up with technology at their fingertips, whether it's a toddler with an iPad or a teen with their eyes glued to their smartphone. Parents may not like it, but raising kids with modern tech is unavoidable. So how can they make sure to do it right?

In this revised and updated fourth edition, Katharine Hill explores the impact of the digital world on teens and kids. She gives practical advice on screen time, social media, and consumer culture without avoiding the tough conversations around real internet dangers such as online bullying, grooming, and pornography.

Left to Their Own Devices? is for parents of all stages and experiences, whether cradling newborns or navigating the teen years, strangers to Snapchat or avid social media influencers. This accessible resource is for moms and dads who not only want to manage bringing up children in a tech-saturated society but who want to confidently parent in a world of screens.
