Published 2 years ago
Description
In this Bite Size from episode #90 neuroscientist Dr Sarah McKay talks about why she thinks society should be more forgiving of teenagers and their behaviour as they grow and learn.
Dr Sarah compares teenagers going through puberty to newborn infants, why do are we so accepting of children learning and making mistakes while their bodies and brain develop but we don’t afford that same courtesy to teenagers going through something very similar.
