Synopsis

A
charming, meticulously researched, and illuminating look at how technology
infiltrates every aspect of raising children today, filled with helpful advice
parents can use to best navigate the digital landscape, and ultimately learn to
trust their own judgment.

There’s
an app or device for nearly every aspect of parenting today:
monitoring your baby; entertaining or educating your toddler; connecting with
other new parents for tips, tricks, and community—virtually every aspect of
daily life. But it isn’t a parenting paradise; the truth is much more
complicated. 

The
mother of two young daughters, journalist Sophie Brickman wondered what
living in a tech-saturated world was doing to her and her children. She turned
to experts, academics, doctors, and innovators for advice and insight. Baby,
Unplugged brings together Brickman’s in-depth research with her own
candid (sometimes hilarious) personal experience to help parents sort through
the wide and often confusing tech offerings available today and to sort out
what’s helpful and what’s not.

Filled
with relatable and entertaining stories as well as practical takeaways, Baby,
Unplugged is destined to become a touchstone for parents today, giving
them the permission to forge their own path through the morass of technological
options, to restore their faith in themselves, and to help them raise good,
social, and engaged people in the modern world.
