Watch the video at Inside the Teen Brain: The Heart of the Matter In this episode of Inside the Teen Brain, Dr. Eileen Kennedy-Moore joins Dr. Jane Gilmour to explore the complexities of emotional regulation in adolescence. Dr. Kennedy-Moore discusses how emotions serve as valuable sources of information rather than problems to be eliminated, emphasizing the importance of helping teens develop emotional literacy. The conversation highlights practical strategies, such as using feeling cards, the angry adult formula, and soft criticism, to support young people in understanding and managing their emotions. The episode also delves into the powerful role of peer relationships, social learning, and self-reflection in adolescent development, providing valuable insights for professionals, parents, and educators working with teenagers. Learning Objectives 1. To understand the role of emotions as a source of information rather than just a challenge to be managed. 2. To explore practical techniques that help teenagers improve emotional regulation and social skills. 3. To recognize the significance of peer relationships and social learning in adolescent emotional development.

Advances in neurological science point to the amazing complexity of our God-made brains. Because their brains are still developing, our children, teens, and even young adults have what is called an underdeveloped impulse control. This makes them less prone to resist behavioral impulses and more prone to engage in risky behaviors perceived to bring some kind of immediate benefit, but which could also bring long-lasting negative consequences. In spiritual terms, this not only means that our kids are likely to lack wisdom and discernment, but more readily fall into sin. We need to teach them that as sinners, their default setting is to follow their sinful hearts more readily than they are to follow God's Word. Which means that we must nurture them into knowing God's good, life-giving Word, helping to expose sin. As their frontal lobes are still developing, they need parents who serve to train them in Godly decision-making and living.

Watch the video here In this episode, Inside the Teen Brain: A Second Chance, Professor Rosie Meek explores the role of risk-taking, peer influence, and emotional regulation in adolescence, particularly among young people in the criminal justice system. She discusses how participation in structured sports programmes can provide a positive outlet for frustration, improve emotional regulation, and foster transformative changes in identity. Drawing on qualitative findings and real-world examples, Professor Meek highlights how sports settings create opportunities for young people to develop discipline, teamwork, and trust—skills that can translate into healthier behaviours and reduced conflict. The conversation also emphasizes the importance of mentoring and collaborative, youth-centred approaches to engage at-risk adolescents and help them reset their life paths.  Learning Objectives 1. To understand the role of structured activities, such as sports, in fostering emotional regulation and identity development among at-risk adolescents.  2. To explore how peer influence and mentoring can support positive behavioural changes in young people.  3. To identify strategies for engaging adolescents in healthy risk-taking opportunities that build trust, discipline, and resilience. 

Dr. Jane Gilmour talks to Dr. Dominique Thompson An important part of growing up is taking risks... but are our youngest generation still taking enough risks, or the right kind of risks? Are they in fact 'Generation Sensible', or is this a misunderstanding? How can we support them to take good risks whilst supporting their mental health? We cover all this and more in a fascinating discussion about teen risk taking.  Learning Objectives 1. To understand why teens take risks  2. To understand why this generation may be different  3. To discover some practical ways to support healthy risk taking

It's a question as old as time: Nature or nurture? When it comes to the malleable, hormone-driven teenage brain, new research suggests the environment in which that adolescent brain develops...

COVID-19 is still having lasting effects on kids and teens academically, socially and accelerated the aging of their brains. Dr. Danny Huerta with Focus on the Family shares research study from the University of Washington that revealed the pandemic caused teenage brains to age faster than normal. With teens at isolated at home rather than in their social groups many issues have developed such as anxiety and depression. Dr. Huerta also shares what can be done to reverse some of this damage.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“An adolescent brain, it is what it is for a reason”- Brittney KingThe teenage years can feel like a rollercoaster. One moment your young teen is playing it cool, and the next, they're literally rolling on the ground pretending to be a dog. Sound familiar? In this week's episode, I sit down with Brittney King, a licensed counselor, mom of five, and creator of the Think Good Feel Good online courses, to dive into the world of teens, particularly those in Junior High, aged 11-15. “It's such a key time for parents ... to be a guiding force.” - Brittney KingBrittney has a unique insight into our teen's brain development throughout these years and why this unpredictable phase is so crucial for their development, and for us as parents. Their unpredictability can feel frustrating for us as parents (I'm not the only one who thinks sometimes ‘WHAT am I going to do with my teen?!', right?) but understanding the teenage brain can help us be more tolerant of our kids as they explore, learn, and develop. One thing Brittney has learned from being a counselor is that there is not one teenager out there who's not struggling with something. What surprised her the most was how much they want to talk to adults about their problems. They don't always show it and they certainly want some independence but that doesn't mean they don't need you to still be there and helping and supporting them through it. “Teachers, coaches, therapists, they will come and go. But there is no substitute for caring and intentional parenting.” - Brittney KingIt's not about being a perfect parent or trying to be their therapist (they'll see right through you!). What they care about is you connecting with them. They care about whether you're showing up for them and whether they truly believe that you are there for them unconditionally, even when they don't know how to ask for it.Let's hear more invaluable wisdom from Brittney in today's episode.In this episode on the brain development of teenagers, we cover:Why unpredictability is actually part of teen brain development;The importance of being a guiding force;How to connect with your teen without trying to “fix” them;The difference between helping and letting your teen solve their own problems;The importance of developing emotional intelligence for parents raising teens;What does it mean to be a safe person for your teen to open up to?;What teens are looking for in their parents;And more!Need support?

“What were you thinking?” Most parents ask their son this question at least once. Preteens and teens often make decisions without considering consequences. There's a valid reason for this. Teen brains are still developing. The portion of their brain responsible for planning ahead and understanding the if-then effects, the prefrontal cortex, isn't fully mature until the mid-20's. Until then, they need us to steer them toward healthy choices.Their brains develop properly as they exercise positive decision-making skills. That means taking some risks, like learning tricks on a skateboard, and reaping the rewards while resisting unhealthy temptations, like staying up late or spending too much time staring at screens. So, don't be too hard on your son when his decisions appear impulsive;  applaud him when he makes healthy choices.For more encouragement and parenting advice, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.

During the tween and teen years, our child's brain enters the second and final massive growth phase of their lifetime. What makes this phase so challenging for both parents and their children is that the teen brain becomes emotionally raw and reactive, and that once bubbly and affectionate child begins to struggle with emotional regulation and wants literally nothing to do with their parents. Parents are left confused and unsure how to navigate the relationship with their teenager. Aly Pain's passion is empowering parents to build healthy, respectful relationships with their teens without giving up or giving in, even if they've tried everything and are at their wits end.

Besides warning our kids about the spiritual and legal issues related to underage drinking, we must also warn them about the damage that underage drinking does to their still not-fully-formed brains. In today's world, more and more kids are engaging in binge drinking. That is, consuming five or more drinks in a period of two hours. Researchers have now found conclusive evidence that drinking during adolescence can lead to structural damages in the brain that can easily result in memory and cognitive deficits that can persist into adulthood. In other words, drinking as a child or teen can effect the brain even if the person stops drinking as they go through life. Parents, talk to your kids about the dangers of drinking, and encourage them to be good stewards who care for their God-given bodies. Warn them about the dangers of exposure to high doses of alcohol during their adolescent years. What they choose to do now can and will affect them for the rest of their lives.

During the tween and teen years, our child's brain enters the second and final massive growth phase of their lifetime. This 'brain renovation' creates more complex neuropathways for critical analysis, problem solving, independent decision making, risk analysis and a more developed identity. Aly Pain's passion is empowering parents to build healthy, respectful relationships with their teens without giving in or giving up, even if they've tried everything and are at their wits end.

This weeks podcast episode Maria discusses the development of the prefrontal cortex in teenagers and its impact on executive functioning, impulse control, working memory, and emotional regulation. It highlights the challenges teenagers face in decision-making, peer influence, and emotional regulation. Maria provides tips for parents to support their teens.

Statistics tell us that each and every day here in the United States, around sixteen hundred children and teens under the age of eighteen try their first cigarette. Statistics also tell us that each and every year, almost half a million Americans die prematurely as a result of health conditions related to smoking, or from exposure to second-hand smoke. This is why we need to be engaged in ongoing efforts to help kids steward their God-given bodies by avoiding smoking of any type. British researchers are now pointing to new findings that teens who had started smoking by fourteen years of age had significantly less grey matter in the section of the brain known as the left frontal lobe, which is the part of the brain linked to impulse control, decision making, and rule breaking. Parents, God has given us the responsibility to raise our kids in ways that lead to a physically healthy adulthood. Yes, they will make their own decisions, but we need to educate them from a young age regarding smoking's dangers.

Have you ever thought, "What was my teen thinking?" In this episode, we explore the upside and downside of the teenage brain. I interview a knowledgeable and fellow therapist who is a parent to teens and is a therapist to teens. She is also an author and wrote Your Amazing Teen Brain which is written for teens but is good for moms as well. If you have a teen that can get lost in big feelings and get caught in negative automatic thoughts this book will help them understand their brain and give them tools to change their brain in a positive way. Her book is full of interesting research like how teens can increase their IQ through effortful work. Let me introduce you to Elisa Nebolsine. In addition to her clinical work, Elisa serves as an adjunct faculty at the Beck Institute in Philadelphia, and at Catholic University's graduate school of social work. Additionally, Elisa teaches and consults on cognitive behavioral therapy and clinical practice with children and adolescents both locally and nationally. Elisa earned her master's degree in clinical social work from Smith College, and she has been working with kids, teens, and young adults for the past twenty-five years. She has been featured in publications ranging from the Atlantic to NPR, and has been named a Washingtonian (DC) “Top Therapist” in multiple categories.  Contact Elisa at https://www.cbtforkids.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Katherine Morgan Schafler, author of The Perfectionist's Guide to Losing Control, busts myths on perfectionism. Many people wear perfectionism as a badge of honor, but in reality it is a maladaptive behavior that can make parenting more difficult than it already is!Tallo is a digital portfolio platform where your teen can apply for scholarships, internships, and opportunities. Check them out at https://bit.ly/tallotalkingtoteens Visit our website, https://bit.ly/talkingtoteenswebsite, to sign up for our newsletter so you'll never miss an episode!Today's show contains a discussion on suicide. If you or a loved one is in crisis, please call the US National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at (800)-273-TALK or (800) 273-8255. You can also text them via Crisis Text Line (text HOME to 741741). All services are free, confidential and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.Show Notes (00:00) Introduction to Perfectionism (and Katherine!)Katherine shares her background in psychotherapy and how she came to specialize in perfectionism. Plus, the modern shift of “perfectionism” meaning “balanced”—and yet how being “balanced” is often exhausting in today's world! As Katherine notes, “...if you're feeling out of balance, do less, not more.”We also discuss the two perfectionist modes: adaptive and maladaptive. Perfectionism is not inherently bad. It's incredible that humans can have an ideal in their minds and set to work to create a more “perfect” reality. Healthy perfections know the ideal is meant to inspire. Unhealthy perfections conflate achievement and inspiration. Katherine shares two questions we can ask to determine if someone's (or our) perfectionism is adaptive/healthy or maladaptive/unhealthy. (11:40) - Perfectionism and Self-Worth Katherine helps us explore how perfectionism is often misconstrued. We discuss how people often use the term "perfect" to describe moments that are complete, but not necessarily flawless. Often when someone says they had a “perfect” day, they mean there was nothing missing, not that every single moment was flawless. Feeling we are not perfect can sometimes manifest in sneaky ways. Katherine presents how exalting others can sometimes be a down-judgment on our own character. Saying things like “Well of course she can land that job” or “It makes sense the coach gave him the award,” is actually a down-judgment on ourselves. Katherine clues me in on ways we can recognize the talents of others , without overlooking our own awesomeness. (18:50) The Teen Brain, Dramatics, and SuicideKatherine and I talk about how the teen brain does feel emotions more keenly and more intensely because it is still developing. In many respects, this makes our teens more vulnerable to big emotions. With rising rates of teen suicide, Katherine encourages parents to speak to their teens directly. She believes the single most important question parents can ask that might save their teen's life from suicide is: “Have you ever thought about ending your life?” She shares why it works…To listen to the full episode, become a member!

Hosts: Leah Murray and Greg Skordas Fixing the Candidate Replacement Problem Many people remember the outcry this past August when Joel Ferry resigned from the legislature, but was still on the ballot. What people may not remember is that it has happened before. Utah Sen. Curtis Bramble of District 16 has submitted a bill that will, hopefully, put an end to that kind of confusion in the future.  A Retroactive Bill on Injunctions In our ongoing coverage of bills submitted for the upcoming legislature, one very interesting submission has caught Greg's eye- and he's not happy. ‘H.J.R. 2' would change the rules of granting injunctions both in the future and, interestingly, in the past. Leah and Greg discuss whether this is legislative overreach or a simple matter of checks and balances. Greg Clears the Air on the Sex Offender Registry Earlier this week, Greg made some strong statements regarding his view of the sex offender registry and some suggested amendments to the current laws - which turned out to be a little flawed. Dan Strong, Director of the Utah Sentencing Commission joined the show to help Greg understand the new amendments a little better. A Disturbing New Affidavit on the Idaho Killings Idaho police have released a new affidavit detailing how they caught suspect Bryan Kohberger, who is charged in the killings of four Idaho college students. Dave Cawley, host of KSL podcast Cold, joins the show to discuss the DNA, phone pings, and white sedan that led law enforcement to arrest Kohberger.

The teen brain goes through one of the most spectacular developmental stages and while we all know about the raging hormones and the risk taking tendencies, there are TWO pretty AMAZING things that happen during this period that made my jaw drop, and wish I had know about it earlier in my own boys lives. On today's show we are learning about the 3 brains in a way that you can teach your kids and your teen really needs to know all the bells and whistles of their cranial creation. Their brain is pretty fabulous and it's all an intentional set up to guide our teens into adulthood if they know how to "drive the bus". How can we support our teens and how is their brain different from ours?

One of David Gillespie's (many) books is called ‘Teen Brain' (2019). This episode is a conversation about the challenges that come with living in a teenage body that's riding a rollercoaster of biochemical urges, emotions and changes. *Book Synopsis: With their labile and rapidly developing brains, adolescents are particularly susceptible to addiction, and addiction leads to anxiety and depression. What few parents will know is that what we think of as the most typical addictions and problematic teen behaviours - smoking, drinking, drug taking, sex leading to teenage pregnancy - are on the decline. The bad news is that a whole raft of addictions has taken their place. Whereas once the dopamine-hungry brain of a teenager got its fix from smoking a joint or sculling a Bundy and coke, it is now turning to electronic devices for the pleasure jolt that typically comes from online playing games and engaging with social media. What is doubly troubling is that, unlike drugs, alcohol and cigarettes, electronic devices are not illicit. Quite the contrary. They are liberally distributed by schools and parents, with few restrictions placed on their use. And, to add fuel to the fire, emerging research shows that if addictive pathways are activated during the teen years, they are there for life, and that what starts as a screen addiction can lead to major substance abuse later in life.  davidgillespie.org See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Unless you've been living under a rock, you're aware of the growing legalization of marijuana and its acceptance for recreational use. According the 2021 Monitoring the Future Survey, thirty point five percent of high school seniors report using marijuana in the last year. Researchers have found that teenagers who only smoke marijuana occasionally, are just as likely to develop schizophrenia as those who smoke marijuana daily. Smoking the drug at these lower frequencies of less than twice a week, has the same six-fold increased risk of getting the mental disorder as those are smoking marijuana on a daily basis. Parents, marijuana is not a harmless neutral drug. Your teenagers are in a period of development where their brains are not fully formed until they reach their mid-20's. Along with the multitude of spiritual, moral, and legal issues associated with marijuana abuse, there are physical issues as well.

Dr. John B. Molidor, CEO & President of the Brain Based Leadership Institute, works with people to better understand how their brains work. He guides his clients towards using their brains more efficiently and to help them make better decisions. In this episode, he explains why it can be so frustrating working with your teen as they begin to enter adulthood. Your brain doesn't fully form until you're 25 years old, so it's important for parents to practice a bit of grace when your child makes illogical mistakes.   Key Takeaways Why do teenagers do some of the most ridiculous things sometimes? Chances are that teenagers don't really have a good reason for some of the actions they do. Their brain is not fully formed.  We're asking our teenagers to grow up faster than what their brains will allow. Brains don't fully form until about 25 years old, however our teenagers can start driving at 16.  How can we get our teens to follow simple directions? It's not always them being defiant!  How can parents help their teens better develop a healthy brain?  The brain is the only thing in our bodies that can change and get rewired.  Let's talk about the importance of sleep for your teen.  Parents also need to follow by example and practice good sleep hygiene. You can teach an old dog new tricks! The brain is always learning.  What routine should you have after you've learned something new?  Why is hydration so important? The brain is made up of water!  Dr. Molidor offers additional resources if you'd like to learn more about the brain!  The brain and the body really needs sunshine. Even if you live in a gloomy place, make an effort to get out and be in the sun.    Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness! Edgerety.com/education   Resources Dr. Molidor on LinkedIn Matt Walker's books Brain Rules by John Medina Seven And A Half Lessons About The Brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett   Quotes:   “Let them nap during the day instead of having them sleep till 1pm. Sleep consistency is important.”    “The beauty of some of this is by saying to your teenager, ‘You need to do this', you start to examine your own biases and things that have been ingrained in you and then you can ask, ‘Is this true?'”    “You can't teach an old dog new tricks? That's wrong. You can teach an old dog new tricks.”

Our brains develop from the back to the front. The prefrontal cortex – important for impulse control, managing emotions, planning, organization and finishing tasks – is the last to develop, and is not fully mature until our mid-twenties. How does this impact teen behavior and decision making and how can parents make sure we still matter?

Our children are the future, yet our willingness to invest in them dawdles and whimpers. With so much at stake - including our species' own survival - why have we chosen to ignore this problem? This episode takes a look at the motivations and bottlenecks surrounding this issue. "It is in playing and only in playing that the individual child or adult is able to be creative and to use the whole personality, and it is only in being creative that the individual discovers the self." -- Donald Woods Winnicott "Whether in the public or independent sector, in schools or at home, being creative in providing education and promoting creativity are not dispensable luxuries. They are essential to enable us all to make lives that are worth living." -- Sir Ken Robinson Links: _____________________________________________________________ Education, Children, Learning & Development (courses, books, research, and other resources): https://www.amazon.com/Make-Stick-Science-Successful-Learning/dp/0674729013 https://www.amazon.com/Intelligence-Understanding-Creation-Intelligent-Machines/dp/0805078533 https://www.amazon.com/Discipline-Without-Punishment-Employees-Performers/dp/0814402763 https://www.wondrium.com/scientific-secrets-for-raising-kids-who-thrive https://www.wondrium.com/raising-emotionally-and-socially-healthy-kids https://www.wondrium.com/how-to-raise-lifelong-learners https://www.wondrium.com/how-the-world-learns-comparative-educational-systems Scrum: https://www.amazon.com/Scrum-Doing-Twice-Work-Half/dp/038534645X Scrum in The Classroom: https://www.scrum.org/resources/blog/scrum-classroom-part-1-time-change https://threeteacherstalk.com/2019/01/25/using-scrum-in-the-classroom/ Marijuana & The Adolescent Brain (Research): Marijuana Use and High School Dropout: The Influence of Unobservables: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2910149/ Effects of Cannabis on the Adolescent Brain: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3930618/ Is the Adolescent Brain at Greater Vulnerability to the Effects of Cannabis?: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyt.2020.00859/full Cannabis and the adolescent brain: https://www.pnas.org/content/117/1/7 What Pot Really Does to the Teen Brain: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/what-pot-really-does-to-the-teen-brain/ NOVA Principles (bad science): NOVA homepage: https://novaprinciples.com/ Religious Kids Are Less Likely to Get in Trouble (as cited by NOVA): http://www.center4research.org/religious-kids-likely-good/ Effects of Religion (the more honest science): Mixed Blessing: The Beneficial and Detrimental Effects of Religion on Child Development among Third-Graders: https://www.mdpi.com/2077-1444/10/1/37/htm Science Does Not Say That Religious Children Are More Likely to be 'Immoral': https://futurism.com/no-science-does-not-say-that-religious-children-are-more-likely-to-be-immoral -- The Great Filter now has a website :) https://thegreatfilterpodcast.com/ Your feedback is appreciated and important to us.

Dr. Erreca explains that the brain of a teenager is complex and still maturing. She describes that their brain is like a brain with "spotty wifi" that sometimes leads to inconsistent or unpredictable behavior.  She also explains that an important part of the teenage brain and personality development is the teen being able to figure out who they are by exploring or trying different things.
