ABOUT THE BOOK

Like Whitney Houston sang so well, “I believe that children are our future, teach them well and let them lead the way.” If children are our future, it is our job to protect our future today! The climate of our culture has shifted since introducing Social Media as a primary means of interaction and communication. It is particularly challenging because everyone uses Social Media…. kind people, mean people, good people, bad people…. Social Media has no filter nor is it a respecter of persons. With that being said, our children are the most venerable to these facts and this Social Media Era is also the first generation of Social Media Era Parents. As Social Media Era Parents, we have a new set of issues that we have to address due to Social Media. Some issues are minor, and some are major. This guide addresses the major issues that are affecting parents right now. These issues require first-hand knowledge of the issues by parents and ways to prevent or intervene to protect their children from dangerous issues that affect the health and well-being of their child. In the era of the #MeToo movement and school shooting and other major community challenges, this book makes sure that children are not forgotten, and it addresses problems that parents are here to protect them from to the best of their ability.
