Teenagers, by design, push limits and seek out new and exciting experiences. But how far is too far? And what should 10to20s be thinking about when considering taking a risk? In this one-minute video, Dr. Lisa Damour encourages teens not to focus on whether they could get caught. Instead, they should be asking themselves whether someone could get hurt.
You can show this Dear Teenagers video to your teen, watch it together, or use it for guidance on how to talk with your teen about risk-taking. Looking for more? Parents can watch the Untangling Family Life video “Helping 10to20s Be Safe” here.
