Last week, I caught myself checking my phone for the third time while reading a single page of a book. The uncomfortable realization hit me: I've been rewired for notifications. If this is what constant interruptions have done to my adult brain—one that was fully formed before smartphones existed—I can only imagine what it's doing to my children's developing minds. We're raising the first generation whose brains are being fundamentally rewired by constant interruptions, and the consequences go far beyond shortened attention spans.

Yesterday, my 8-year-old corrected me about a historical fact he'd 'googled' while I was explaining something to him. When I gently suggested his source might be incomplete, he confidently replied, 'But Google knows everything, Dad.' In that moment, I realized we've reached a tipping point: our children are learning to trust algorithms more than the people who love them most. We're facing a crisis of trust, authority, and wisdom transfer that strikes at the heart of family formation.

As a father, author, and engineering leader who has witnessed AI's rapid transformation of our world, I find myself asking the same question many parents are wrestling with: How do we prepare our children for a future where artificial intelligence will be as commonplace as smartphones are today? The answer isn't found in fear or resistance, but in intentional preparation rooted in timeless values and practical wisdom.

I don't have this parenting thing figured out—but maybe that's exactly why we need to talk. Last Tuesday, I completely blew it as a dad, and it taught me something important about the moments that actually matter.

Sometimes the best adventures start with the simplest intentions. Mine began with just wanting to make my kids smile – and somehow turned into creating over 90+ published books in just over a year. It all started with Midjourney, a single coloring page, and the discovery that Amazon KDP could turn digital art into real books delivered to my door.
