Synopsis

***Kids, Sex & Screens* is Dr. Jillian Roberts' primer for parents that know they need to speak with their children about sexualized media, but don't know where to start.** Our kids are being exposed to sexual content at a **younger and younger age**, whether through the Internet, advertisements, or interactions with their peers. When children are exposed to this sexual information without context, or images of a graphic nature, they can experience **lasting psychological effects** with deep-seated ramifications. *Kids, Sex & Screens* explains in easy-to-understand language what exactly the psychological effects of that exposure can look like, and offers parents the **tools and expert advice on how to handle it appropriately**. Weaving eye-opening accounts from her own counseling practice with up-to-date psychological science, Dr. Jillian Roberts gives a full-fledged accounting of our sexualized society. Dr. Roberts pairs this explanation with advice and **concrete actions** that parents of both girls and boys desperately need. Writing with warmth and authority, Dr. Roberts has an important message for parents: you can **mitigate the risks your child faces** navigating a sensational and sometimes disturbing world so that they grow up healthy and strong. Using her "7-Point Compass" as a navigational tool, *Kids, Sex & Screens* helps parents make sure their sons and daughters mature in a manner that is **age-appropriate** in a "mature content" world.
