Adventures in Parentland: The Teenage Years

There’s no doubt our young people are growing up in a world which is way more complex than the one we grew up in. We never had to worry about things like social media, climate change, the rise of Artificial Intelligence, and all the other changes barrelling down upon us. Where we had certainty, they have uncertainty.

We had too little information, they have too much. It’s no wonder in amongst all this that more and more young people are reporting issues of stress, anxiety, and depression. Helping young people figure out how to navigate all this is one of our most important roles and so Nigel will provide some suggestions for how we best do that. The good news is that while the issues might be complex, and the way forward uncertain, the things we can do help our kids are as simple as they have always been.
