《Parenting Generation Screen》养育屏幕世代的孩子

每位父母都需要了解:屏幕正在怎样影响我们的孩子?

今天许多孩子每天都离不开智能手机、社交媒体、短视频、网络游戏和串流娱乐。父母知道过度使用屏幕,尤其是社交媒体,可能给孩子带来负面影响,但真正困难的问题是:我们应该怎样帮助孩子学习智慧地使用科技?

Parenting Generation Screen 强调一个重要的教养原则:先建立关系,再进行纠正(Connection over Correction)。

作者 Jonathan McKee 鼓励父母不要只是一味地限制、禁止或没收手机,而是透过有意义的亲子对话,帮助孩子逐渐建立使用科技所需要的智慧、自制力和分辨能力.

本书讨论许多父母实际面对的问题,例如:

  • 孩子几岁适合拥有自己的手机或电子设备?
  • 是否应该允许孩子把手机带进卧室?
  • 社交媒体会怎样影响青少年的心理健康和睡眠?
  • 社交媒体中究竟有哪些父母需要注意的潜在危险?
  • 父母应该怎样有效使用 Parental Controls(家长控制功能)?
  • 应该怎样为孩子设定合理的屏幕时间和使用界限?
  • 怎样与孩子讨论社交媒体、网络娱乐和科技使用,而不只是不断发生冲突?

这是一本非常实用的家长指南,帮助父母在科技快速变化的时代,更有信心地为孩子设立适当的界限,同时保持良好的亲子沟通,并逐渐训练孩子自己作出智慧的选择。

本书的目标并不是单纯让孩子“少看屏幕”,而是帮助父母培养孩子成为一个 screenwise(懂得智慧使用屏幕)的年轻人——最终即使父母不在身边,他们也能够学习管理自己,在数码世界中作出成熟和负责任的选择。
