As "Manners Guru to the Youth of America," I welcome you to my author page with a firm handshake and good eye contact. I am an educator, psychologist, and substance abuse prevention specialist with a passion for nurturing healthy kids, healthy families, and healthy schools. I’ve written 11 books for parents, teachers, counselors, youth care specialists, and teens on such topics as maintaining a healthy screen life, manners, parenting, creativity, “wise highs,” child raising (for parents), and parent raising (for children). My latest book, SLAYING DIGITAL DRAGONS: TIPS AND TOOLS FOR PROTECTING YOUR BODY, BRAIN, PSYCHE, AND THUMBS FROM THE DIGITAL DARK SIDE, empowers teens to take charge of their digital life. With respect, empathy, and wacky humor, SLAYING DIGITAL DRAGONS shows teens how to gather intelligence about their screen scene; join the resistance against Big Tech’s manipulations and addictive algorithms; protect themselves from the Digital Dark Side; and conduct a self-intervention (called an “App-endectomy”) to reset and optimize their digital lives. I have been an independent school head, president of a leading substance abuse prevention non-profit, children’s museum education director, and school consultant. My work with parents, teachers, administrators, and students as a speaker and workshop leader has taken me to schools and conferences around the world. I welcome your interest and inquiries. Please feel free to contact me with questions about books, speaking engagements, and/or Proper Behavior at: alexjpacker.com
