The secrets of the teenage brain

THE teenage years, according to Dr Rose Williams, a drama therapist and expert in adolescent neuroscience, are probably the time when it feels most, to a parent, as if the brain inside your child’s head is nothing like your own. All that risk-taking, acting-out and angst over peer approval. It can sometimes seem as if your child has gone slightly bonkers when they are just going through the process of normal teen development. Hence, if you’ve got a teenager in your life, it helps to know some of the neuroscience of what is going on inside the teenage brain – so that you can know when to seek help and when to roll with it, or change your parenting style. . http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/16222179.The_secrets_of_the_teenage_brain/?ref=rss
