The Talk We Forgot to Have

Raising Resilient Teens in a World Built to Mislead Them

A research-based, practical guide for parents and educators.

Why This Book Exists

Your teenager knows how to use a phone. That does not mean they know how to think critically about what it shows them.

In a world where false information spreads faster than true information, where algorithms are engineered to exploit the vulnerabilities of the adolescent brain, and where the line between fact and manipulation is invisible to the untrained eye, media literacy is no longer optional. It is the conversation we keep forgetting to have.
