Screens that Eat Children

Screens That Eat Children: Living, parenting and teaching in an age of digital devices

Ross Parker

How did we end up with a device in every pocket, a screen in every hand? How did childhood change from a time of relative freedom, to a period of electronic tethering? This book invites you to rethink the story of digital technology, and to ponder how we came to build a global machine that eats childhood. Written by Ross Parker, educator and technologist, and based on research, professional experience and personal anecdote, it raises questions around how we choose to raise and educate our young, and points to ways to live better in an age of ubiquitous devices.
