About this listen

What is happening with our teens mentally? Are we raising them to be empathetic, good people?  Parenting with children and living in an age of social media is a very delicate dance!  While we want our adolescents to take chances and feel confident about their choices, parents want to instill a sense of responsibility and forethought.  The ‘fight or flight’ amygdala is in a constant battle with the ‘calming’ prefrontal cortex.  This conversation was very educational and I was fascinated to learn about the adolescent brain.  It was a privilege to sit down with this middle school counselor extraordinaire! 


Here are some of the resources Amiee recommended:

  • Dan Segal - Brainstorm: The Power and Purpose of the Teenage Brain
  • Growth Mindset
