The Teenage Brain
In the loop with… The Teenage Brain
In our third edition please find a link provided by The BBCs Family Tree series of article titles ‘The Biggest Myths of the Teenage Brain', to keep you ‘in the loop’ with managing and supporting a young person’s development and decision making.
This was one of the most asked for topic area from the survey conducted in our second edition, and also the one as a parent myself can explain certain behaviours we have to deal with. I hope you find this useful.
The Biggest Myths of the Teenage Brain. Our brain changes hugely during adolescence. New research shows how we can use this transformation to help teens achieve their potential. Find out more at https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20220823-what-really-goes-on-in-teens-brains
