A Whole-Child Approach to Digital Wellness and Healthy Media Use

"...a godsend for the parent whose child is glued to their smartphone or laptop." -Michael G. Thompson, Ph.D., psychologist, author of Raising Cain

In this holistic approach, Dr. Michael Rich empowers you to guide your children toward smart and healthy digital choices with straightforward instructions and actionable advice that you can customize for your family's specific needs.

Known as the "Mediatrician" due to his acclaimed work as a pediatrician, child health researcher, and children's media specialist, Dr. Rich presents a compassionate and realistic look at the reality of growing up in a screen-saturated world--and how you can help your kids emerge from a technology-rich environment as happy, well-informed, empathetic adults.

Backed by scientific evidence and decades of professional and personal practice, The Mediatrican's Guide will give you the tools to:

  • Combat toxic media influences and virtual addiction.
  • Train your family toward digital wellness.
  • Understand what your child is learning from media.
  • Rise above the anxiety of digital inundation and find a healthy, happy medium.
