Are you aware that networks are an excellent means of communication but sometimes they get out of control? Do you spend hours online using screens? Do you want to make the most of technology´s potential?
An innovative book for today's teen. This is not just a book; it's an awareness manual. It has practical activities and thinking challenges that you can investigate and apply both physically and mentally.
Disconnect a little from screens and enjoy the outdoors. Don’t let technology control you. You control it. Don’t let technology use you. You use it.
Use social networks to connect with others, but don’t be naïve; the art of friendship is a daily construction.
Don’t allow others to harass you; love yourself enough to set limits. Nor is it good to remain in the judge's chair sitting behind the screen.
