Wired child

the long version

Kids' obsessive use of video games, social media, and texting is eclipsing their connections with family and school--the two most important contributors to their well-being. The result: a generation of kids who suffer from soaring rates of emotional and academic problems, with many falling prey to an epidemic of video game and internet addictions. Wired Child offers concrete parenting strategies that will help you create the strong family kids need and encourage their school success. You'll also learn how to protect kids from destructive tech addictions, and instead guide them to use technology productively as a positive force for their future. --Cover.
