Synopsis

AI has entered your child’s life — whether you invited it or not.

It can help with homework, answer questions, create images, recommend videos and even become someone your child talks to when something is wrong.

The challenge for parents is no longer whether children will encounter artificial intelligence. It is knowing when AI is genuinely helping, when it is beginning to take over, and when an adult needs to step back in.

Parents: Stop the Carnage is a practical guide for parents of children and teenagers aged 9 to 17. It explains artificial intelligence without technical jargon and focuses on the situations families are already facing:

• AI doing too much of the homework
• chatbots becoming confidants
• photographs, privacy and digital consent
• fabricated and AI-generated images
• recommendation systems and endless feeds
• impersonation, fake voices and urgent requests
• what the law can — and cannot — do
• creating a realistic Family AI Agreement

Each chapter starts with a recognisable family situation and offers concrete questions, warning signs, conversation starters and simple rules that can actually be used at home.

This is not a book about banning AI, nor about embracing every new tool.

It is about understanding what the technology does, protecting what matters and keeping the conversation open.

Your child may know the tool better than you do. That does not make them the adult in the room.
