How do we raise children for a future we cannot fully imagine?Parenting in the Artificial Intelligence Age is a practical, reassuring guide for parents, teachers, and families navigating childhood in a world shaped by AI, screens, social media, online learning, and digital risk. Written for ordinary parents rather than technology experts, it explains how artificial intelligence is changing children’s education, safety, emotional growth, creativity, and future careers.With warmth and clarity, the book offers a balanced framework built around three ideas: protect, prepare, and participate. Parents will learn how to protect children from cybercrime, cyberbullying, misinformation, addiction, and unsafe online behaviour; how to prepare them with critical thinking, emotional intelligence, creativity, ethics, financial literacy, and adaptability; and how to participate in their digital lives without fear, overcontrol, or blind trust.Blending global research with Indian and Bengali family realities, the book addresses screen time, AI tutors, gaming, social media pressure, deepfakes, privacy, school integrity, future jobs, and the changing role of parents. It does not ask families to reject technology or celebrate it blindly. Instead, it shows how technology can be used wisely while preserving what children need most: love, attention, values, resilience, and genuine human connection.
