| Abstract | "Most families are riding the wave of high-tech gadgets, rarely considering its negative consequences: increased stress, "connected isolation," loneliness, bad habits and behaviors, and dangerous addictions. This eye-opening resource can help you sort through the promise and the pitfalls of virtual living, showing you how to navigate social media choices and set healthy boundaries. After taking a quick self-evaluation quiz--and revealing your own family's potential hot spots--we dive into some practical advice: why boys get hooked on video games (and how to help them play smart); what to do when families are caught in the dark side of the Web. Managing your family's high-tech habits is a can't-miss read for every family ... and every church"--Page 4 of cover. |
