520    Children today are digital natives, growing up in an age 
       where social media and online communication is the norm. 
       This book is an indispensable guide for parents who may 
       feel they are struggling to keep up, addressing the issues
       that young people and their families face in the world of 
       modern technology. Suzie Hayman, a parenting counselor, 
       and John Coleman, a distinguished psychologist, use their 
       combined expertise to explore the challenges and 
       possibilities of being constantly connected, helping 
       parents to make choices about how they communicate, set 
       boundaries and establish rules. Using real-world examples 
       and solid psychological theory, the book looks first at 
       the anxieties parents express about digital technology, 
       followed by the serious potential threats such as cyber-
       bullying, sexting and easy access to pornographic or 
       violent materials. However, the internet is also full of 
       enormous potential and a further chapter explores the 
       positive side of the digital playground. The authors also 
       share their expert understanding of child and adolescent 
       development and how this relates to the appeal of digital 
       media, with special attention paid to the importance of 
       good communication. The end result is a toolbox for 
       parents, full of tips, strategies and techniques designed 
       to help navigate the digital world, ensuring it is safe 
       yet still exciting for young people. Parents and Digital 
       Technology is essential reading for all parents and 
       guardians as well as those caring for children and 
       teenagers in a professional setting, who want to get the 
       best out of life and modern technology while keeping safe 
       in a family that talks to each other, spends time with 
       each other and enjoys each other.--Publisher website.
