Parenting Without Power Struggles in the Digital Age

Few parents have escaped the challenges of raising children and teens in an age where the potential to be "plugged in" is present 24/7.

Susan addresses these dilemmas and more as she realistically lays out possibilities for living sanely in the midst of screens.
