In an age where screens are ubiquitous, Device Rites offers a grounded, compassionate guide to raising conscious kids in a wired world. This book navigates the complexities of technology’s role in childhood and adolescence without alarmism or digital abstinence, emphasizing rituals that build presence, trust, and balance. Each chapter explores a developmental milestone—from the first screen exposure in infancy through social media initiation and digital autonomy at graduation—revealing how intentional family practices can shape healthy relationships with devices.
Drawing on the latest research in developmental psychology, neuroscience, and family systems theory, Device Rites shows how screens influence attention, social learning, and identity formation. It demystifies the paradoxes of video calls for preschoolers, the negotiation of screen time as currency in early childhood, and the delicate boundary-setting that supports self-regulation. The book offers practical insights into the evolving digital lives of kids and teens, from early device requests and password negotiations to navigating group chats, gaming, and online romance.
More than a manual for restriction, Device Rites invites families to co-create meaningful rituals around technology use that honor developmental needs and emotional intelligence. It empowers parents and caregivers to replace reactive screen battles with shared routines that cultivate mutual respect, digital accountability, and resilience. By fostering intentional digital habits early, families can prepare children not just to survive, but to thrive in a screen-saturated culture, equipped with the skills and consciousness to manage technology with balance and care.
For parents seeking a thoughtful, research-informed approach to technology that centers connection over control, Device Rites is an essential companion in modern parenting.
