Abstract

In Parenting for a Digital Future: How Hopes and Fears about Technology Shape Children’s Lives, Sonia Livingstone and Alicia Blum-Ross present a timely and critical examination of different families’ relationships with digital technologies and how parents perceive and manage their children’s experiences and practices. This book does a very successful job of shedding light on parents’ perspectives of digital technology, going beyond polarised accounts and hinting at the radical and comprehensive effort required to address the social and individual dilemmas of parenting in the digital age, writes Bengi Süllü.
