Don’t Let the Algorithm Raise Them
Attention. Courage. Childhood beyond the screenBy Anna Westbrook
Length8h 47m
About this audiobook
Your child is growing up in a world designed to capture attention. This audiobook helps you protect something deeper. Childhood itself.
Don’t Let the Algorithm Raise Them is a calm, practical, and emotionally intelligent guide for parents raising children in the age of screens, feeds, gaming, social media, and AI.
Anna Westbrook shows why the real issue is not simply screen time, but what screens are replacing. Boredom, play, waiting, attention, friendship, responsibility, physical competence, and real-world courage.
This is not an anti-technology audiobook. It is not a guilt trip. It is a clear, humane guide for parents who want to stop drifting and start choosing the defaults that shape family life.
For every parent who has wondered whether childhood is changing faster than families can adapt, this audiobook offers clarity, steadiness, and a way back to more childhood.
