📚 About Our Books
Before you explore our free resources, we invite you to learn about the books that inspired them.
“The 20 Year Lag: Parenting in an AI-Driven World”
We are raising the first generation of children who will never know a world without AI, yet our parenting wisdom is 20 years behind. This book argues that AI has shifted from a tool we use to an agent that shapes our children’s language, play, identity, and morality. Through the lens of developmental psychology and global family stories, it introduces the IDEAL Framework—a practical blueprint for raising sovereign children who can work with AI without being shaped by it.
“The IDEAL Family: A Practical Companion to The 20 Year Lag”
This companion workbook is designed to help you apply the IDEAL Framework in your daily life. It contains a complete Family Workshop Guide, Book Club Discussion Guide, Quick Reference Cards, Educator’s Guide, and over 24 hands-on activities for children of all ages. It is the practical toolkit that turns philosophy into action.
