"As we enter new territories with our children in hybrid worlds of learning online, this book couldn't come at a better time. Heather has mapped out a strategic and manageable plan to tackle wellbeing whilst imparting her knowledge of digital spaces, interspersed with kindness and awareness from the experiences with her own children and as a teacher. Her style is both informative and engaging and it feels like she is there beside you gently guiding you through the book. The book is both a guide and a workbook to use as you navigate the complexities of online presence combined with the awkwardness of teens. Taking the time to connect and work together with your tween or teen through this book will lead to invaluable skills for the future, clearer communication and ultimately better family relationships. The activities, reflection exercises and templates will be invaluable for every parent. I wish I had this as a resource for my sons when they were in high school!"

Nicole Hohl, parent to one tween and two teens, Singapore
"This book is a must-read! It's interactive, engaging, and leads to fabulous conversations with my teens. I wish I had it when my kids were younger because I could've set so many different boundaries that would've kept us all happy as a family. With things moving too quickly online, this is a one-stop resource every parent needs to be prepared for the years ahead."

"Heather B has written the conversation opener that families need! The book discusses balanced boundaries to tech, no extremes (yes, gaming is good for you!), on including tech in our modern lives. The prompts and worksheets will help you, as a family, negotiate healthy boundaries, and I love the family charter, not just for kids, but parents too!"
