A new cyber-safety guide for today's world, by a leading international expert and author of the bestselling Sexts, Texts & Selfies.
'Growing Up Digital is a lifeline for parents and carers navigating the digital jungle. Susan's advice is grounded in decades of frontline experience, international training, and a passion for child safety that's second to none. Her work has helped hundreds of thousands of families and schools, and her influence stretches from Parliament House to the family dinner table.' - Dr Michael Carr-Gregg, bestselling parenting expert
Our children are true digital natives, growing up in a world where their friendships, learning and even identity are shaped online. But with this comes risks that parents never experienced themselves. In recent years, alarming new threats have emerged - sextortion, blackmail, deepfakes and image-based abuse - adding to the ongoing dangers of cyberbullying, grooming, pornography, sexting and problematic screen use.
Written by internationally recognised cyber safety expert Susan McLean, Growing Up Digital tackles the urgent challenges now facing families. With compassion and authority, McLean offers a conversational, easy-to-use handbook to give your children their 'digital armour'.
Packed with real-life case studies, up-to-date resources, clear explanations of the law and trusted links for further support, this book empowers parents and educators to act with confidence. From teaching teens how to manage their digital reputation and social media, to opening conversations about the toughest of issues, this is a practical roadmap in a rapidly changing landscape.
Susan McLean is the go-to voice for internet child safety, trusted by schools, governments and families across Australia and around the world. With no other resource offering the same depth of expertise or breadth of advice, Growing Up Digital is a must-have for every parent, carer and teacher.
'Reading McLean's book is at least, in this digital world, one place where parents can seek advice.' - Daily Telegraph on Sexts, Texts & Selfies by Susan McLean
