Surviving Adolescence

What�s REALLY Going on with Your Kids?

  • Do you ask yourself any of these questions?
  • Is Jane getting physical with her new boyfriend?
  • Is Jack experimenting with drugs or alcohol?
  • Why has Jamal�s confidence suddenly dropped?
  • Is Ricky feeling too much pressure in his advanced classes?
  • Vanessa is spending all her time texting and on Facebook. Should I be worried?
  • Why doesn�t my child talk to me anymore?

If so, �Surviving Adolescence: What�s REALLY Going on with Your Kids?� is for you.

In this four-part tele-seminar course, Shannon White, M.Div., journalist, and author of How Was School Today? Fine., interviews four of the nation�s leading experts on adolescent issues about questions you may have about what�s really going on in the lives of your kids.

Dr. Joel Haber, an expert in the field of bullying, talks about the �digital divide� between parents and adolescents that creates an open door for cyber-bullying to occur:

�Kids, without really understanding the parameters of technology, take risks that can be really problematic because they don�t understand the potential consequences.�

Dr. Harris Stratyner, a national expert in the field of adolescent addictions: �They model; they�re curious, they want to be sophisticated and want to catch a buzz. They�re always looking for that thrill . . . that feeling that they�re in an altered state of consciousness and they want to feel more relaxed and have a social lubricant.�

Tom Mahoney is an expert in the field of adolescent and teen sexuality. �In 2009, 46% of high school students had sexual intercourse . . . � Mahoney says, �It�s important for parents to be informed. It�s important for kids to have access to information that is accurate and it�s important for kids to have a healthy sense of who they are.�

Dr. Sharon Scully, is the former Director of Admissions at Columbia University and now consults families in the college search process. Scully says, �It�s become confusing even for parents who were well educated, because the whole admission process is different from what it was when they went to school.�
