What does it really take to guide a teenager toward independence in an ever-changing world? From managing IEPs and beginning transition planning at 14 to fostering self-awareness and skills for adult life, the journey is layered with challenges and growth. Parents like today's guest, Natasha Robertson grapple with teaching social media safety, addressing emotional needs, and balancing day-to-day struggles with long-term goals. The process is both exhausting and inspiring, requiring patience, persistence, and firm advocacy. While the tools like coaching, therapies, and community support help, the weight often falls on families to navigate complex systems, such as educational frameworks and disability services. For teens, building independence means developing judgment, learning routines, and understanding boundaries in a digital age. For parents, like Natasha, it means preparing them for emotional, financial, and social self-reliance while ensuring basic skills are mastered. Are we as a society truly equipping these families and teens with the tools they need, or are we still leaving them to figure it out in isolation?[00:00 - 08:34] Evolving Services and Self-AdvocacyRealizing that past trial-and-error with therapies informs current decisionsThe child's ability to describe symptoms (e.g., stomach pain, insomnia) guides interventionsEmphasizing the shift from purely parent-led advocacy to incorporating the teen's direct feedbackPreparing for ongoing changes in support needs as the child advances academically and socially[08:35 - 15:47] Navigating the Teen YearsAddressing the impact of puberty and hormonal shifts on behaviorConsidering new social interactions and the need for structured supportImplementing coaching strategies for everyday routines (e.g., chores, picking out clothes)Recognizing that independent living skills build gradually through guided practice[15:48 -28:40] Managing Digital BoundariesEstablishing phone usage restrictions (e.g., set times) to protect against late-night browsingFinding monitoring tools (apps that flag concerning words) to balance privacy and safetyRealizing that direct honesty about monitoring builds trust with teensCoaching the teen on responsible online communication and the risks of oversharing personal data[28:41 - 53:19] Caregiver Self-Care and ResilienceCarving out small daily moments for personal relaxation (e.g., a movie break or foot soak)Relieving stress by connecting regularly with supportive friendsObserving that the teen's increased coping skills allow the caregiver to pause before interveningTrusting the cumulative impact of years of therapies and interventions[53:20 - 1:01:50] Dr. G's TakeAwaysContact Natasha Robertson n.robinson8@gmail.com.Additional Resources MentionedCommunity Living Supports: Services that assist with daily living skills and social engagement.Individualized Education Program (IEP) & Transition Planning: Formal educational plans that outline services and future goals for adolescents.Career-Connect Programs: Local agencies or initiatives that help teens explore job training, résumé building, and employment opportunities.Book: A teen parenting guide by Dr. Ken Ginsburg, titled Congrats, You're Having a Teen, referenced for positive perspectives on adolescence.

Welcome to Pediatric Meltdown! In Today's episode, our guest is https://parentandteen.com/author/ginsburgemail-chop-edu/ (Ken Ginsburg, MD, MSEd). Dr. Ginsburg re-frames adolescence - not peril and drama, but instead, a time marked by exploration, curiosity, and joy. Parents often believe that they won't matter anymore, but in reality, they matter more than ever. While teens are embarking on their journey to independence, the adults in their lives, us too, serve as guides and teachers. We are the emotional containers for big feelings and "lend our calm". Teens are "super learners" and the world is their oyster if we paint the journey with hope and excitement. Pediatric clinicians offer a safe space to share all the ups and downs. For teens and parents, knowing that we have their back is golden! Dr. Ginsburg is the Founder & Program Director, of the Center for Parent and Teen Communication He is a physician, adolescent medicine specialist, and Professor of Pediatrics at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. He is committed to preparing adults to be the kind of people that adolescents deserve in their lives. He supports local, regional, and national organizations in developing programs and policies that strengthen families and see young people through a strength-based lens. He speaks to parent, professional, and youth audiences nationally and internationally and is the author of 5 award-winning parenting books as well as a toolkit for youth-serving professionals. CPTC is rooted in his strength-based philosophy and resilience-building model. [00:30 - 08:59] Pediatric Meltdown: Dr. Ken Ginsburg on the Importance of Adolescence Dr. Ken Ginsburg is the founder and program director of the center for parent and teen communication. He is a physician adolescent medicine specialist and professor of pediatrics at the children's hospital of Philadelphia. He supports local, regional, and national organizations in developing programs and policies that strengthen families and see young people through a strength-based lens.

CPTC is rooted in his strength-based philosophy and resilience-building model. [08:59 - 17:37] How to Raise a Resilient Child At some point, parents need to learn how to do things independently, and adolescence is a crucial time for this. Parenting during this time can be difficult because parents are anxious and want to protect their children from harm. To help parents navigate this stage successfully, they need to remember that their children are growing and developing and that mistakes are part of the process. Parents should also share their strengths with their children and help them develop coping mechanisms for when stress is unavoidable. [17:37 - 26:38] The Truth About Adolescences Adolescents are emotional and rational beings, with brilliant emotional brains. The emotional brain takes over during adolescence, and this can be challenging for adults to manage. Adolescents need our guidance and support to think, plan, and reason. Communication with adolescents is different than when children are younger and requires a calm, respectful, and understanding approach. Adolescents are not inherently risky and need our guidance to explore their boundaries safely. [26:39 - 35:06] How to create golden opportunities at the limit of what they know To create golden opportunities at the limits of what they know, so that their brains, which want more and more knowledge, get it there and they don't have to go beyond those points. Make school incredibly enriching. You make home enriching, you make it so that when the kids are at their limits, their brains go as happy brains. If you don't give them those golden opportunities and don't set boundaries, then they will push too far and go into risk...

Rejoice School of Ballet empowers youth to realize their potential by training, nurturing and celebrating dancers from diverse racial, socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds. • Registering new students on Aug. 12 • Upcoming original ballet in February. Doing "The Little Engine that Could" Our dancers will spend the year studying the 7 C's of resiliency to prepare. Each year Rejoice stages at least one ballet from the classical repertoire, or a completely original production, and in February 2020, we will embark upon a fresh, inspirational ballet written around the quintessential childhood story of perseverance and resilience, The Little Engine That Could. Considered by the National Education Association as one of the top 100 inspirational children's books, this story of steadfast perseverance was chosen to motivate the at-risk youth involved in Rejoices programs because the story has great potential to resonate and inspire young people whose life circumstances remain challenging. The “Little Engine” story will be considered and portrayed through the lens of the “7 Cs: The Building Blocks of Resilience,” developed by Ken Ginsburg, a pediatrician specializing in Adolescent Medicine and Director of Programs at Center for Parent and Teen Communication (http://www.fosteringresilience.com). The 7 Cs are comprised of seven interwoven assets known to build strong, capable young people: confidence, competence, connection, coping, control, character, and contribution. Rejoices programming for all students will focus on the 7 Cs for 2019-2020. Our original ballet will be written/choreographed by Gerald Watson, a Company Dancer with Nashville Ballet, and one of only a handful of African American male dancers in the US. Student dancers will portray the toys in the “Little Engine” story. Tentative plans include two wheelchair-bound youth dancers from Nashville Ballet's special needs class who will perform the key role of engines in the “Little Engine” train.
