Description
Finally, a series created for parents and educators!
Are you noticing a change in your girls? Depressive symptoms, need for online validation and body image issues? It is the early signs of screen addiction showing up in adolescents. This colorful 3-booklet series using text and images presents a faith-informed and research-based analysis of how modern digital platforms exploit the adolescent brain's reward system to foster compulsive use, anxiety, and diminished well-being. It explains how social media and the "attention economy" encourage excessive screen time that reshapes adolescent behavior and identity, often at the expense of their real-world relationships, creativity and mental health. Adolescent girls also have a unique online danger: human traffickers. They use social media and the internet to target and lure in girls with low self esteem. We need to protect them. Grounded in social critique and biblical principles, Adolescent Development Specialist and Pastor Ron Tinsley urges parents and educators to understand the underlying emotional drivers, implement practical strategies to support a balanced holistic approach for girls with technology. Although screen overuse affects adolescent boys and girls, this series acknowledges that their behaviors and motivations often differ based on social, psychological and biological factors. The first booklet provides general awareness and best practices to help adolescents overall. The second booklet is specifically about the challenges boys face while the third booklet highlights specific difficulties that girls encounter.More details
