-
- Kids & Family
Have you ever said to your teen, “What’s going on in that teenage brain of yours?” Well, they may not know but I brought in a guest that does.
John Coleman trained as a clinical psychologist and was formerly a senior research fellow at the University of Oxford. He is the founder of a research centre studying adolescents and their families, and during his career he has also run a special school for troubled teenagers and worked as a policy advisor for the government. He was awarded an OBE for services to young people in the Queen’s Birthday Honours in 2001.
In this episode we explore these questions.
In what way is the brain changing?
What role do hormones play in the teenage brain?
Why do teenagers stay up late and struggle to get up in the morning?
Do teenagers really take more risks?
Why are teenagers so argumentative and how come their moods shift so quickly?
How does understanding the developing brain improve relationships and communication at this crucial stage?
