Plus—honoring the past, imagining the future
| February 2, 2023 | | PODCAST Kids Are Not Alright — But We Can Help How can we come together as family members, educators, and communities to support youth as they come of age amidst political, social, technological, and economic upheaval? For starters, we need to talk about kids “in a way that has hope, has ideas, and is forward-looking because it’s hard for teenagers to hear the conversation around them be so bleak,” says Lisa Damour, clinical psychologist and author. She speaks with Christine Moutier, Chief Medical Officer of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, and Rick Weissbourd, a child and family psychologist at Harvard, in a conversation moderated by How to Raise an Adult author Julie Lythcott-Haims. They discuss reasons behind the alarming rise in youth mental health issues and practical tips for having healthier, more productive conversations with the kids in our lives.
