Did you know that…
- your teen’s brain is actually overdeveloped, not underdeveloped?
- boys experience a neurologically related drop in empathy during their early teens, but girls don’t?
- if it were brain development that created risk-taking and sensation-seeking, your 13-year-old would take bigger risks than your 17-year-old?
So much of what we “think” we know about the teen brain is just not true. And so much that we need to know about our teenager’s brain is not well understood.
The decisions your teen makes can have a deep and long-lasting impact on their life. Choices related to sex and sexuality, alcohol and other drugs, schooling, vocations, and just whether or not they’ll listen to us can cast long shadows, or bring long-term happiness. As a parent, understanding your teen’s grey matter, matters! You will be their greatest guide through this often tumultuous period. But believe it or not, the teen years don’t have to be baffling, and you don’t have to be afraid.
Join Dr Justin Coulson for an incredible webinar that looks deep inside our teenager’s brains, helping us to know what’s really going on in there, and what we can do to help our teenagers make safe, healthy, wise decisions.
