Growing Up in Public

"Growing Up in Public" by Devorah Heitner delves into the complexities of raising children in the digital age, where social media and constant connectivity have blurred the lines of privacy. Heitner emphasizes the shift from "monitoring" to "mentoring," advocating for open communication and guidance rather than intrusive surveillance. The book explores how the pressures of online presence, "personal branding," and the fear of "being canceled" impact young people's development, and provides parents with practical strategies to help their children navigate these challenges, fostering healthy digital habits and a strong sense of self. Essentially, it is a guide to helping children build character in a world where everyone is watching.
