“Teen Behavior Explained: The Essential Guide to Adolescence ”
12:00PM-2:30PM CCSD District 93 Administration Center
Parents often long to know what’s going on inside teens’ heads. Steinberg, one of the world’s leading authorities on adolescence, will provide insights as he discusses concepts from his best-selling book “Age of Opportunity: The New Science of Adolescence”.
Adolescence now lasts longer than ever before, Steinberg argues, and that makes these years the key period in determining individuals’ life outcomes. Learn solution-oriented strategies based on cutting-edge research on brain development, risk-taking and self-control – all to make us more compassionate and effective parents.
This free event will begin at 7 p.m. Jan. 27 at the College of DuPage McAninch Arts Center (MAC), Fawell and Park boulevards in Glen Ellyn.
Don’t miss this leading authority as he draws on new research to explain why the adolescent years are so developmentally crucial and what we must do to raise happier, more successful kids.
Steinberg also will speak at noon Jan. 27 at the Community Consolidated School District 93 administration center, 230 Covington Drive in Bloomingdale. He will present the Essential Guide to Adolescence ages 10-25: Teen Behavior Explained.
