Silver writes like a good friend and a concerned parent. Like you, he was deeply affected by September 11 and how our world has changed since that tragic day. He understands that 9/11 will remain the major event for our children's growing years, just as World War II and the Cold War was for our parents and grandparent's lives. He understands that the War on Terrorism has engulfed us in an unconventional war like no other we have ever fought where our enemies seek to harm and terrorize us here at home. This easy-to-read volume discusses how we got into this conflict, the threats to our safety, and provides practical (not apocalyptic) advice on things you can do to protect your family, community, and country. This passionate book's central theme is about raising kids and offers ideas on how to protect your children during these turbulent times. The book is crammed to the gills with realistic, action steps you can take-right now.

Parents and Teachers today are at the unfortunate disadvantage of having kids that know far more about computers and web access than they do. With Internet connections everywhere you look, it is very easy for minors to access pornographic or otherwise immoral material right under their parents' noses. This reference brings a guiding light to the parent or teacher who wishes to protect minors from questionable material on the Internet. It is not a fancy software package that claims to do everything for you. It is a guide to show you how to audit your home or school system and keep your computer out of the back alleys of the information superhighway.
