Raising Kids in the Age of AI
By Sikho
The Pew Research Center's February 2026 study revealed a 13-point gap between teen AI chatbot use (64%) and parental awareness (51%). Twelve percent of U.S. teens are using AI for emotional support; only 18% of parents approve. More than half of all U.S. teens regularly use companion chatbots. Most parenting books on technology do not address what is actually happening with AI in adolescent life in 2026. This book does. Anchored in the current Pew, Drexel, MIT Media Lab, AAP, and APA research, Raising Kids in the Age of AI is a comprehensive field guide for parents who recognize that the standard parental playbooks have failed to keep up with how completely the landscape of childhood has changed. Follow three composite families through the book — Maya (14, secretly using Character.AI for emotional support), Jordan (6, in early-childhood AI exposure), and Eliana (developing AI literacy through her elementary years) — and absorb the architecture, the conversations, and the engagement frameworks that produce healthy AI-era childhood. Twelve chapters across three sections: understanding the landscape (the 13-point gap, what your kid is actually doing, the three conversations you haven't had), age-specific guidance (early childhood through high school), and topic-specific frameworks (the tutor question, the companion question, boundaries that work, critical thinking, and the deeper work of raising humans in an AI-saturated world).
