Parenting for a Digital Future, by Sonia Livingstone and Alicia Blum-Ross, is based on in-depth studies of how families approach and self regulate the highly mediated world they inhabit. The book explores the choices being made by parents around children's use of digital technology at a time when advice and guidance is either absent or out of step with the nuanced realities of digital life today, and as the connected world of tomorrow only begins to take shape. Rather than present a "how to" guide, the authors seek to acknowledge the balancing act parents are engaged in, understand how values and attitudes shape children's digital experiences and provide realistic insight into the pragmatic reassurance and support parents and children actually need.
