Digital Parenting for Neurodivergent Teens: A Guide to Social Media Safety, Screen Time Boundaries, and Online Success for ADHD and Autistic Youth

Are you exhausted by nightly battles over screens? Do you lie awake worrying that your neurodivergent teen is being manipulated, bullied, or left behind in the digital world — and that every attempt to set boundaries only pushes them further away?

You are not failing. The rulebook wasn’t written for your family. Digital Parenting for Neurodivergent Teens is the first book to combine social media safety, screen time strategies, and online success tools with a deep understanding of the ADHD and autistic brain. Written in a warm, non-judgmental voice by Prince Penman, this book replaces fear and conflict with a practical, collaborative framework that actually works.

Inside, you'll discover how to:

·        Understand the real neurological reasons your teen is drawn to screens — and why "just take the phone away" backfires every time.

·        Co-create a flexible Digital Boundaries Agreement that respects sensory needs and executive function challenges while keeping your teen safe.

·        Teach your teen to spot predators, resist misinformation, and say "no" online — essential self-advocacy skills for life beyond your Wi-Fi password.

·        Set up privacy settings, safety contact systems, and calm-response plans without spying or destroying trust.

·        Guide your teen from passive scrolling to purposeful creation — helping them build a positive digital identity, portfolio, or community around their passions.

Whether your teen is glued to TikTok, lost in a Discord server, or gaming until 2 a.m., this book gives you the tools to protect them while preserving — and deepening — your relationship.

Stop fighting the screen and start connecting with the teen behind it.
