About this listen

What every parent needs to know about screens and their kids.

Maybe your kids are like many others - glued to their smartphones, social media, and streaming entertainment. While we know excessive screen time, especially social media, isn’t healthy, how do we teach our kids to become screen-wise?

Prioritizing connection over correction, Parenting Generation Screen equips you with key questions and conversations to help you process screen limits with and for your kids. You’ll learn how to dialogue in meaningful ways about social media, entertainment, and screen time so they learn to be wise in the digital world.

Jonathan McKee speaks and writes worldwide about technology and social media for families - and has three kids of his own. He addresses such questions as:

  • At what age should my child get a phone or screen?
  • Can my kid have a phone in their bedroom?
  • How does social media affect my teen’s mental health and sleep?
  • What dangers are really lurking on social media?
  • How can I best use parental controls?

In this extremely practical book, you’ll gain confidence and find answers you need to set boundaries, guide your kids, and help them navigate the digital landscape.

Great Advice on Digital Safety (small caveat)

I agree with all the advice given in a broad context of digital safety. As a general consumer, it felt very odd and uncomfortable when religion was mentioned fairly heavily throughout the book. It felt less inclusive and more unsafe as a listener for those with religious trauma.

Overall, one can interpret as they see fit or omit certain perspectives as deemed necessary. Obviously, write about what you believe in and what you want to share with the world. I am just sharing an alternative perspective about my experience with those sections.

It felt more than enough to simply and subtly mention work with youth groups or some board spectrum opinions.

As someone who grew up with a lot of technology, I would highly recommend this to parents as a tool to understand communication with your children about the current digital world and its dangers. I very much liked the connection before correction mentality.

Applicable to everyday screen frustrations

I started this book with the mindset of wanting to just unplug my whole family out of exasperation. This book soothed my mom heart and educated me on practical thought processes to navigate screens.
