ABOUT EVAN SORLEN

Raising children for the world ahead.

Evan Sorlen writes about the decisions, habits, and conversations that help families stay grounded in a digital age.

Practical guidance for a changing childhood.

This book began with a simple question: what do children need from us when attention is being shaped by systems designed to capture it? The answer is not fear or perfection. It is understanding, steadier boundaries, and the confidence to prepare children for independence.

The heart of the work

Less fear. Less fighting. More preparation for the world children will eventually navigate on their own.
