Upcoming Workshop – “A Parent’s Guide to the Teenage Brain”
I will be presenting a 3 hour workshop entitled “A Parent’s Guide to the Teenage Brain” at the Woodstock campus of Fanshawe College on Oct 21, 2013 (6:30-9:30)
“A teenager’s brain is not just an adult brain with fewer kilometres on it. It is a brain that has not fully developed. It is a work in progress and has confused parents for centuries. Modern science is now explaining biological reasons :
- why teens can seem so mature one minute and so maddening the next
- why some struggle and some bloom
- why some engage in risky behaviour
- why they can’t get out of bed before noon on Saturday
- why some slam doors
Science is tiptoeing on the edge of understanding the teenage brain and the science is changing fast. Understanding the teen brain can lead to smoother relationships between parents and their kids.
