À propos de cet audio
A groundbreaking, research-based guide that sheds new light on why young people make dangerous choices - and offers solutions that work.
Texting while driving. Binge drinking. Bullying. Unprotected sex. There are plenty of reasons for parents to worry about getting a late-night call about their teen. But most of the advice parents and educators hear about teens is outdated and unscientific - and simply doesn't work.
Acclaimed adolescent psychiatrist and educator Jess Shatkin brings more than two decades' worth of research and clinical experience to the subject, along with cutting-edge findings from brain science, evolutionary psychology, game theory, and other disciplines - plus a widely curious mind and the perspective of a concerned dad himself.
Using science and stories, fresh analogies, clinical anecdotes, and research-based observations, Shatkin explains:
- Why "scared straight", adult logic, and draconian punishment don't work.
- Why the teen brain is "born to be wild" - shaped by evolution to explore and take risks.
- The surprising role of brain development, hormones, peer pressure, screen time, and other key factors.
- What parents and teachers can do - in everyday interactions, teachable moments, and specially chosen activities and outings - to work with teens' need for risk, rewards, and social acceptance, not against it.

“Adolescence is a risky time of life. Enter Jess Shatkin, a consummate and experienced professional whose fresh insights and practical advice move our understanding into the 21st century. Born to Be Wild is a game-changer.” (Madeline Levine, PhD, author of The Price of Privilege and Teach Your Children Well)
“From the opening paragraph, it’s crystal clear that you’re embarking on a fascinating ride helmed by a masterful storyteller. Born to Be Wild should be in the hands of every parent. It will not only help you raise resilient teens but also save lives.” (Michele Borba EdD, educational psychologist and author of UnSelfie)
“From Socrates to Shakespeare, adults have always worried about young people. We fear and envy them too, but now with Born to Be Wild, we finally have a chance to understand them. Grounded in a lifetime of clinical judgment and compassion, this scientifically riveting and ultimately hopeful account will help adolescents and their families to survive and thrive.” (Erika Christakis, best-selling author of The Importance of Being Little)

well done and very thoughtful
I enjoyed this book because it explained the processes of decisions for my young teen. It also talked about different strategies in order to deal with them, it was easy to listen to, it was interesting and it kept my attention by thoughtful and intelligent conversation.
