Silicon Valley tech giants design their products to hook even the most sophisticated adults. Imagine, then, the influence these devices have on the developing minds of young people. Touted as tools of the future that kids must master to ensure a job in the new economy, they are, in reality, the culprits, stealing our childrens attention, making them anxious, agitated, and depressed.

Whats worse, schools across the country are going digital under the assumption that a tablet with a wi-fi connection is whats lacking in our education system. Add to that the legion of dangers invited by unregulated access to the internet, and it becomes clear that our screen-saturated culture is eroding some of the essential aspects of childhood.

In Be the Parent, Please, former New York Post and Wall Street Journal writer Naomi Schaefer Riley draws from her experience as a mother of three and delves into the latest research on the harmful effects that excessive technology usage has on a childs intellectual, social, and moral formation. Throughout each chapter, she backs up her discussion with tough mommy tipsrealistic advice for parents who want to take back control from tech.

With the alluring array of gadgets, apps, and utopian promises expanding by the day, engulfing more and more of our lives, Be the Parent, Please is both a wake-up call and an indispensable guide for parents who care about the healthy development of their children.

Acknowledgments

I NEVER THOUGHT I would write a book about parentingat least not until my kids - photo 1

I NEVER THOUGHT I would write a book about parentingat least not until my kids were grown. Its like writing a memoir at the age of twenty-five. What do you know?

The answer would be not muchif I were to draw solely on my own experience. But while my children have made the questions surrounding technology more urgent in my mind, my own family cannot provide the answers. For those, I am grateful for the help of dozens and dozens of mothers and fathers around the countryold friends, recent acquaintances, colleagues, friends of friends. I hope you see your experience (if not your names) reflected in these pages.

I am also thankful for all the experts who took the time to speak with mepeople who work in Silicon Valley, in Washington, and at universities around the country. This is a world I would not have understood without you. The input of so many teachers, principals, and caregivers has also enabled me to get a much broader view of the challenges that children and parents are experiencing today.

In terms of the structure and argument of the book, I would like to thank my editor, Susan Arellano, for her patience and feedback as well as Christine Rosen for her useful and encouraging comments.

My own experience as a mother has been made easier and better by my husbanda calm and steady voice of reason and love. Though we had different upbringings, our parents, I think its fair to say, all came to the same conclusionwhen raising kids, you cant pay too much attention to what everyone else thinks.

Though Im sure I didnt appreciate it at the time, I owe a great debt to my mother and father for that lesson and so many others. They instilled in me a love for reading and writing that I hope to pass on to my children. Though they tell me they are relieved not to have to raise children today, it is hard to imagine grandparents with deeper devotion.

Lastly, I must thank Emily for her keen observations about human behavior; Simon for his curiosity about, well, everything; and Leah for her boundless enthusiasm for the world. Spending time with the three of you makes everything clearer and happier.
