Talking Back to Facebook: The Common Sense Guide to Raising

Talking Back to Facebook: The Common Sense Guide to Raising Kids in the Digital Age

A smart, urgently needed book that helps parents and their kids navigate todayâ€™s online landscapeâ€”from the founder and CEO of the nationâ€™s leading authority on kids and the media.

Now, more than ever, parents need help in navigating their kidsâ€™ online, media-saturated lives. Jim Steyer, founder and CEO of Common Sense Media, the nationâ€™s leading kidsand- media organization, and the father of four children, knows that many parents and teachersâ€”unlike their technology-savvy kidsâ€”may be tourists in the online world.

In this essential book, Steyerâ€”a frequent commentator on national TV and radioâ€” offers an engaging blend of straightforward advice and anecdotes that address what he calls RAP, the major pitfalls relating to kidsâ€™ use of media and technology: relationship issues, attention/addiction problems, and the lack of privacy. Instead of shielding children completely from online images and messages, Steyerâ€™s practical approach gives parents essential tools to help filter content, preserve good relationships with their children, and make common sense, value-driven judgments for kids of all ages.

Not just about Facebook, this comprehensive, no-nonsense guide to the online world, media, and mobile devices belongs in the hands of all parents and educators raising kids in todayâ€™s digital age.
