Stephen Arterburn is a respected innovator dedicated to helping transform lives with God’s truth all over the world. In 1988, he founded New Life Treatment Centers, a venture-capital funded organization providing Christian psychiatric and addiction treatment in secular psychiatric hospitals. Because of the impact, growth, and profitability of this organization, Stephen was awarded the Socially Responsible Entrepreneur of the Year by Ernst and Young, Merrill Lynch, and Inc. Magazine. He quickly grew that extremely profitable organization to $100 million in revenues before it was purchased by Thomas Nelson Publishers. At that time, he spun off “New Life Ministries” into the current, not-for-profit ministry producing the #1 syndicated Christian Counseling Radio Program, “New Life Live!”. Many people in remote locations say it is the only wise counsel available to them.

Today’s parents face a challenge unknown to previous generations.

Screens are everywhere we look. Your kids may wake up to the morning news on TV. When they go to school, they may work all day on their laptop—or even a government-issued tablet. In the evening, they may play a game on their tablet, text friends on their smartphone, or watch a movie with the family—maybe even all three at once! Your kids' 24/7 access to screens connect them to a universe of content...some good, and some deeply damaging.

How is a parent supposed to raise a physically and emotionally healthy, socially competent, well-balanced child in such an environment? Stephen Arterburn teams with Dr. Alice Benton to answer the most common questions raised on the syndicated New Life Live! radio program. They help you understand:

• How to set a good example by better monitoring and limiting your own screen time
• Why flexibility is important
• What to do if you and your spouse have different expectations about your child’s screen time
• How to teach your child the basics of good digital citizenship
• How your child can pursue an interesting and fulfilling life in the real world
• How to spot the signs of screen addiction and help your child recover

Parenting has never been easy, and in the twenty-first century it’s harder than ever. But with the solid scriptural principles found in this book, you can develop a game plan that will help you and your child succeed.
