Your kids know way more about technology than you, and it’s time you did something about it.
Today’s kids are intuitively able to use every device, app, game and social network handed to them. Just give a table or a smart phone to a toddler and watch what happens.
But as life speeds up, and we’re busier than ever being ‘good parents’ the technological gap between parents and kids seems to grow exponentially.
We expect the Government and the education system to do something about it, the fact is, kids desperately need their parents to understand the technology they are using RIGHT NOW, and to embrace the technology themselves.
There is no point in fighting technology or ignoring it. It’s not going away, and the sooner you embrace it, the better of you and your family will be.
This book is aimed at helping you get started with technology and to understand how it can actually help, and not hinder your family life through many practical applications. It will also sere as a valuable resource to teachers, career advisors, grandparents and other influencers of children who realise the world is changing and are prepared to step up and do something about it.
Written by Yvette Adams, a mother of two, who never thought in a million years she’d work in IT, she now gets a real kick out of helping people all in live with technology too.
