520    "In the decades it takes to bring up a child, parents face
       challenges that are both helped and hindered by the fact 
       that they are living through a period of unprecedented 
       digital innovation. Drawing on extensive research with 
       diverse parents, this book reveals how digital 
       technologies give personal and political parenting 
       struggles a distinctive character, as parents determine 
       how to forge new territory with little precedent, or 
       support. The book reveals the pincer movement of parenting
       in late modernity. Parents are both more burdened with 
       responsibilities and charged with respecting the agency of
       their child-leaving much to negotiate in today's 
       "democratic" families. The book charts how parents now 
       often enact authority and values through digital 
       technologies-as "screen time," games, or social media 
       become ways of both being together and setting boundaries.
       The authors show how digital technologies introduce both 
       valued opportunities and new sources of risk. To light 
       their way, parents comb through the hazy memories of their
       own childhoods and look toward varied imagined futures. 
       This results in deeply diverse parenting in the present, 
       as parents move between embracing, resisting, or balancing
       the role of technology in their own and their children's 
       lives. This book moves beyond the panicky headlines to 
       offer a deeply researched exploration of what it means to 
       parent in a period of significant social and technological
       change. Drawing on qualitative and quantitative research 
       in the United Kingdom, the book offers conclusions and 
       insights relevant to parents, policymakers, educators, and
       researchers everywhere"--|cProvided by publisher.
