Love this book!

This book gives parents practical how-to advice about navigating not only technology with your family, but also relationships. Kathy shares her knowledge of what our kids are struggling with in our culture and in our family life. Kathy keeps it real and doable. The audio book worked great for me especially since the written resources are available on the website! I'm definitely sharing this book with our family and friends.

Not just about screens.

This was very insightful. it does a great job of Biblically identifying lies and countering them with truths. This helped me get a greater understanding of my children's mind sets and world views by giving behavioral examples and remedies.

One point of contention I had was with the drop out rate statistics. My experience and those who I work with is: College is no longer worth the money spent. MANY drop out because of this realization. Same with High School. I have mentored many High School and College drop outs in Machine Shops who went on to make more money than I do.

I encourage you to listen and take notes!

Amazing insight on what teens want and need

The author has great Biblical insight on what teens want and need from screens. How are are they being confused by social media? How are we missing out by using screens? What could we be gaining? How can contracts with teens hinder their personal development?

a book for all ages with kids

I started this with a thought that it was only about tech, it is about so much more.

MUST READ

I could not stop agreeing with everything Kathy Koch said from beginning to end. So many thoughts, words and ideas I could not articulate myself but felt. I also love how Kathy doesn’t just state the negatives of screens but the positives, which in honesty I didn’t even see. My teen is 13 now. I should have read/ heard this when he turned 11. My life wouldn’t have been so rough the past couple of years.
