Addicted

Addicted: Big Tech and Little Minds is a powerful, eye, opening exploration of how childhood is being reshaped, rewired, and in many ways stolen by the digital world. This book pulls back the curtain on what really happens when children grow up immersed in smartphones, social platforms, endless scrolling, and technology designed to capture attention before minds are fully formed. Thoughtful, compelling, and backed by clear explanations, it reveals how children's emotional wellbeing, mental health, social development, and identity are being shaped by forces far beyond their control.If you've ever wondered why children are more anxious, more distracted, more lonely, or more exhausted than ever before, this book explains it. From the rise of screen addiction to the collapse of unstructured play, from the comparison culture taking over childhood to the perfectionism spiraling through young minds, every chapter illuminates a part of the modern childhood puzzle. You'll learn how sleep is disrupted, why attention spans are shrinking, why girls and boys are being pulled into very different digital traps, and how constant connectivity has created a generation overwhelmed by pressure yet disconnected from real life.What sets this book apart is its blend of clarity, compassion, and practicality. It avoids blame and instead offers real insight into how persuasive design, digital overstimulation, and the relentless pull of devices shape behaviour in ways children cannot defend themselves against. It breaks down the invisible systems behind obsessive scrolling, algorithmic pressure, and the economic forces that reward keeping young users online for as long as possible.But this is not just a diagnosis of the problem. It is a blueprint for change. Readers will discover how families, schools, and communities can reclaim childhood, protect developing minds, and rebuild space for play, imagination, rest, and authentic connection. With four clear rules for a freer childhood and a hopeful roadmap for the future, this book empowers adults to take back control in a world that feels increasingly engineered for distraction.Whether you are a parent, teacher, caregiver, or a concerned citizen, Addicted: Big Tech and Little Minds offers essential insights into the digital childhood crisis and practical steps toward restoring balance. It is a timely, vital guide for anyone who wants to help children grow up healthier, more resilient, and more connected to the real world.If you're ready to understand what has happened to childhood and how to change its future, this book is your essential companion.
