Anxiety and depression in adolescents can now be considered an epidemic, with reliable data showing a 500% increase over five decades. This stunning statistic is exacerbated by the isolation and stress brought on by the recent pandemic.
This dynamic and entertaining 2-hour program from Dr. Michael J. Bradley:
- Reviews the latest teen risk behaviors of bullying, sex, drugs, and violence, which relate to their excessive stress levels.
- Explains the neurology of the teen brain, focusing upon its decision-making deficits, resilience challenges and unprecedented vulnerability to anxiety and depression.
- Compares today’s adolescent world with that of its parents, revealing critical parenting factors that have contributed to this risk-laden trend.
- Shares research proving that an appropriate “dose” of stress protects against the diseases of anxiety and depression.
- Offers a set of specific resilience-building parenting strategies, or “what to do when.”
- Allows for extensive audience Q&A.
