Talk About It: A Family Guide to AI

Your teenager is already using AI. The question is whether you're part of that conversation or watching it happen from the next room.
This guide is Week 1 of the AI for Parents Challenge, and it's built for exactly the moment you're in right now. Not the moment when you've read every article about chatbots and figured out your family's philosophy. The moment before that, when you just want a calm, clear place to start.
Inside, you'll find real conversation starters instead of lectures, and practical ways to think through AI together instead of a list of rules handed down from on high. I wrote it for parents who don't need to become tech experts overnight. You just need a way in, and a teen who feels like you're curious instead of scared.
No jargon. No fear-mongering. No pretending this is simple when it isn't. Just a starting point that respects both what you're worried about and what your kid already knows.
If you're ready to open up this conversation at your kitchen table instead of avoiding it, this is where to begin.
