"A must-read book for parents...Guided by extensive research, and presented in easy-to-read language and real-life examples, Dr. Rosen's book will enlighten parents...It helps bridge the generation divide between parents and their technologically literate kids." --Scott Plunkett, Associate Professor, Department of Family and Consumer Sciences, California State University Northridge "Dr. Rosen brings insights, humor, and a balanced approach to how parents can understand and deal with this particularly challenging phenomenon." --Kerby T. Alvy, Ph.D., Founder and Executive Director, Center for the Improvement of Child Caring "Dr. Larry Rosen goes beyond the sensational headlines by providing original research on how young people are actually using Myspace.
