Generation Rewired: How Technology Is Reshaping Childhood, Emotions, and the Future of Mental Health
What happens when childhood goes digital.
In a single generation, play, friendship, and attention have moved online. Our children scroll more than they speak, react more than they reflect, and perform more than they connect. Anxiety is rising. Empathy is fading. And behind it all is a world that feels increasingly artificial for them and for us.
In Generation Rewired, author and educator Emma Everhart delivers a powerful exploration of how technology is reshaping childhood and how families can reclaim what’s most human. Blending neuroscience, storytelling, and gentle guidance, Everhart shows how screens have altered the way children think, feel, and relate but also how connection, presence, and play can restore balance.
This is not a book about blame. It’s a book about healing.
Inside this groundbreaking book, you’ll
- How constant connectivity reshapes the developing brain and emotional resilience
- The subtle ways social media and online games rewire empathy and attention
- Why anxiety, loneliness, and identity struggles are rising in a connected world
- How parents can set healthy tech boundaries — without shame, control, or fear
- Simple daily practices to rebuild real connection, curiosity, and joy
- The surprising power of boredom, play, and presence to heal emotional disconnection
A movement for mindful modern parenting
Generation Rewired doesn’t call for abandoning technology — it calls for rewriting the story of childhood to include both digital literacy and emotional wisdom.
It’s a roadmap for parents who want to raise grounded, compassionate, and confident kids in a wired world — without losing themselves in the process.
If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s too late to reconnect — this book will remind
It’s not. It never is.
