Your child doesn't have to be part of the anxious generation. Anxiety, depression, loneliness, and screen addiction are becoming the norm in today's kids-and it's not their fault. Childhood has been hijacked by algorithms, overprotection, and a culture that confuses stimulation with connection. The result? A generation that's emotionally fragile, sleep-deprived, and struggling to cope. But it doesn't have to be this way.
In Raise Rebels, Not Worriers, you'll discover a bold, evidence-based, and deeply hopeful guide to rescuing your child from the digital trap-and raising someone who is curious, grounded, and emotionally resilient. Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and real-world parenting wisdom, this book gives you the tools to: Rebuild emotional mastery in your home Delay the phone-and win the mental health war Help your child form identity before the internet does it for them Understand the truth about dopamine, porn, sleep loss, and school stress Teach critical thinking in a world built to manipulate Create a screen-resistant family culture based on connection, nature, and play This is not a book about panic, guilt, or perfect parenting.
It's about rebellion-the quiet, courageous kind that begins around the dinner table and grows one brave family at a time. Because the culture won't change overnight. But your home can. And your child deserves a real childhood-not just a digital simulation of one.
