There was a time when parents thought dealing with sex, drugs, and rock & roll was tough — but today’s parents have to deal with the dangers of a “virtual” world; a world of cyberbullying, cyberstalking, sexting, Internet addiction, exposure to porn and other inappropriate online content.
In fact, wisely managing children’s exposure to the Internet is the parenting and educational issue of our decade. Sex, Drugs ‘n Facebook (Hunter House Publishers) by Dr. Megan Moreno helps parents understand the problem and provides solutions.
Dr. Moreno’s book provides a toolkit for adults teaching young people how to avoid the dangers of the Internet while taking advantage of its potential. Written with the collaboration of teens and college-age students and filled with their real stories and case histories, the book also takes into account the experiences and concerns of young people.
Surveys show that about 50% of our nation’s youth have experienced some form of cyber bullying, and 10 to 20% experience it regularly. Sex, Drugs ‘n Facebook draws much-needed attention to cyber bullying and provides kids and adults with the tools necessary to fight the problem and adequately protect themselves online.
