Sample Book Insights: #1 Adolescence is a period of great challenge for both adolescents and the adults who support them. These myths about adolescence are not true, and they can make life more difficult for everyone involved. #2 The third myth is that growing up during adolescence requires moving from dependence on adults to total independence from them.
While there is a natural and necessary push toward independence from the adults who raised us, adolescents still benefit from relationships with adults. #3 This book is about understanding and nurturing the essential features of adolescence to bring the most health and happiness into the world regardless of what age we are. #4 The four qualities of the adolescent mind are novelty seeking, social engagement, increased emotional intensity, and creative exploration.
There are changes in the brain that support these qualities, which help us push back against the status quo and create new ways of being in the world.
