Adam McLane and Mark Oestreicher are two of America's leading experts on teen culture and this book is a must read for parents who want to grasp just how the ever changing world of social media is influencing their kids.

With each passing day, teenagers' lives become increasingly intertwined with social media. How can you as a parent stay informed and involved in healthy ways? How can you help your son or daughter make wise decisions and remain safe online?

Your guides for this journey are Mark Oestreicher and Adam McLane, who draw from their own wells of experience as parents and youth workers. They'll help you chart a course toward discovering and practicing wise family online activity.
