There was a time when parents thought dealing with sex, drugs, and rock & roll was tough — but today’s parents have to deal with the dangers of a “virtual” world; a world of cyberbullying, cyberstalking, sexting, Internet addiction, exposure to porn and other inappropriate online content. In fact, wisely managing children’s exposure to the Internet is the parenting and educational issue of our decade. Sex, Drugs ‘n Facebook (Hunter House Publishers) by Dr. Megan Moreno not only helps parents understand the problem, it provides solutions! It is an informative and resourceful guide to raising cybersensible kids by (a) teaching them balance, and (b) setting firm boundaries when it comes to Internet and social media use.

Backed by detailed research and funded by a National Institute of Health grant, Dr. Moreno’s book provides a toolkit for adults teaching young people how to avoid the dangers of the Internet while taking advantage of its potential. Written with the collaboration of teens and college-age stu¬dents and filled with their real stories and case histories, the book also takes into account the experiences and concerns of young people.
