Teens, Screens, and The Science of Adolescence

About this episode

Headlines blare with the dangers of tech, frightening parents and shaming kids. Making sense of the data requires research-based guidance rooted in an understanding of adolescent development. Enter Erin Walsh author of It’s Their World: Teens, Screens, and the Science of Adolescence for ways forward that both set limits and foster connection with young people.  There is a Snapchat sponsored segment within this episode which includes an interview with Snapchat's Global Head of Platform Safety, Jacqueline Beauchere, about their new online safety program, The Keys: A Guide to Digital Safety, and their in-app parent tool, called Family Center.
