Description

Born to Be Wild: Why Teens Take Risks and How We Can Help Keep Them Safe

A groundbreaking guide that sheds new light on why young people make dangerous choices, offering solutions that work. Jess Shatkin brings over two decades of research and clinical experience to the subject, combining cutting-edge findings from brain science, evolutionary psychology, game theory, and other disciplines.

This book explains how parents and teachers can work with teens' need for risk, rewards, and social acceptance, rather than against it. With stories, fresh analogies, and research-based observations, Shatkin offers an abundance of understandable, engaging, and actionable information on why certain approaches don't work and how to make a positive impact.
