As a parent or guardian of a teenaged boy, you understand the unique challenges that you have to overcome - your son’s lack of communication and poor listening skills, the mood swings, lack of discipline and, maybe, even some personal hygiene issues. But the same precious and loving son is still in that overgrown, clumsy body. You just must learn to understand that most of what you are dealing with is a normal part of going through puberty and maturing.

Between the ages of 12 and 24, the brain changes in important and often maddening ways. It’s no wonder that many parents approach their child’s adolescence with fear and trepidation. According to renowned neuropsychiatrist Daniel Siegel, however, if parents and teens can work together to form a deeper understanding of the brain science behind all the tumult, they will be able to turn conflict into connection and form a deeper understanding of one another. In Brainstorm, Siegel illuminates how brain development affects teenagers’ behaviour and relationships.

Story
As pediatrician and mother of two teenagers Cara Natterson explains, puberty starts in boys long before any visible signs appear, and that causes confusion about their changing temperaments for boys and parents alike. Often, they also grow quieter as they grow taller, which leads to less parent-child communication. But, as Natterson warns in Decoding Boys, we respect their increasing "need" for privacy, monosyllabic conversations, and alone time at their peril.

The first step is simple: Realizing that inside every teen resides two very different people - the regressed child and the emergent adult. The emergent adult is seen at school, on the playing field, in his first job, and in front of his friends' families. Unfortunately, his parents usually see only the regressed child - moody and defiant.

Publisher's Summary
Drawing on her research, knowledge, and clinical experience, internationally respected neurologist--and mother of two boys--Frances E. Jensen, MD, offers a revolutionary look at the adolescent brain, providing remarkable insights that translate into practical advice both for parents and teenagers.
Driven by the assumption that brain growth was almost complete by the time a child reached puberty, scientists believed for many years that the adolescent brain was essentially an adult one--only with fewer miles on it. Over the last decade, however, neurology and neuroscience have revealed that the teen years encompass vitally important stages of brain development.
Motivated by her experience of parenting two teenagers, renowned neurologist Frances E. Jensen, MD, gathers what we've discovered about adolescent brain functioning and wiring and, in this groundbreaking, accessible audiobook, explains how these eye-opening findings not only dispel commonly held myths about teens but also yield practical suggestions for adults and teenagers negotiating the mysterious and magical world of adolescent biology.
Interweaving clear summary and analysis of research data with anecdotes drawn from her years as a clinician, researcher, and public speaker, Dr. Jensen explores adolescent brain functioning and development in the context of learning and multitasking, stress and memory, sleep, addiction, and decision making. Examining data connecting substance use to lingering memory issues and sometimes a lower adult IQ, The Teenage Brain explains why teenagers are not as resilient to the effects of drugs as we previously thought; reveals how multitasking impacts learning ability and concentration; and examines the consequences of stress on mental health during and beyond adolescence.

Take some and leave some
I appreciate many of the topics addressed in this book, and the narrator is very clear (although her dramatic voice tone on some of the unfortunate consequences of bad choices is a bit much). I question the lack of logic in the causality articulated in early chapters. For example, if a significant portion of adults with anxiety disorders were first diagnosed when they were kids, I don't agree it implies that we need to protect our kids from anxiety, It could very well be the early label itself that causes the disorders later in life, or maybe there's no link at all, since there is no mention of how many who were Not diagnosed at an early age ended up with disorders later in life. I think If one looks for a disorder, one will find it, in every human being. We are imperfect and that makes us unique. it's about how we play with the cards were dealt and which new cards we pickup along the way, either on purpose or by chance. Also the author recommends some pretty drastic measures to control our teenagers, and while I get her point, I think it gets in the way of connecting and building trust with our teens which is key.
Still a worthwhile listen for sure, as one of many resources to understand our teens and the different perspectives used to help them navigate these formative years. And most importantly, she sheds light on how events and learnings are processed in the teenager's brain and why. This will help me be empathetic and be realistic with expectations of accountability and responsibility on their part. To be honest, it helps me accept some mistakes I made as a teen. You know those events you recall and wonder "What was I thinking?.." This book answers some of this.
This being said, the author isn't good at telling people what to do. There's a lot of arrogance in her parenting advice and it's hard to get past that. But the scientific pieces are revelating.

Preachy and Uninformative
A lot of self-congratulations in this book, and a lot of reassurance that teenagers aren't an alien species. Yes, we get it. They are not aliens.
If you've heard her interview with Teri Gross (on FreshAir), there's no more scientific content in the book. You've heard it all - and for free. Don't waste time and credits on this one.

Every page, another connection, more compassion
I am the father of eight children (ages 22-8). I am currently raising 4 teens and two twenties (plus 11,8). I am also an adjunct college professor, a faith formation teacher of 58 sophomores, and a high school soccer head coach with 41 boys. Every minute of this audible book was insightful. More than critique, which rarely has an impact on true transformation of any human of any age, we need to help the person under our guidance understand the "why". Ultimately the "why" feeds our "deepest yes" in life. Dr Jensen's work does not dislocate personal responsibility to the growing understanding of neuroscience , but rather, encourages and empowers us to engage our teens and young adults with compassion. In other words, we can say with honest trust in the goodness of developing people, "I know you want to do this right (morally, effectively, meaningfully, developmentally), but here are the challenges you are facing. Stick with it. You will overcome." Thank you Dr Jensen for your important work. Highly recommend to anyone interested in living a more compassionate life.

Misleading title
The information in this book feels geared towards people working in neuroscience or along side it. Although it contained a lot of interesting science on the development of adolescent brains, this lacks the needed tools to actually "survive" these hard years. If I could take the little advice or tips provided in the book on navigating this stage of life, it would fit in a very small chapter. I forced myself through it, and enjoyed some of the chapters but this did little to help my children or myself. Quite disappointed that there was no real help here.

Helpful subject...hard to get over reader
Would you be willing to try another book from Frances E. Jensen and Amy Ellis Nutt ? Why or why not?
Absolutely.
Would you be willing to try another one of Tavia Gilbert and Frances E. Jensen ’s performances?
Not likely. I found it very hard to get over the very pompous voice performance. I don't know how much I actually got from this book because of this huge distraction. I think I'll reread on my Kindle.
What did you learn from The Teenage Brain that you would use in your daily life?

Fascinating
Parents and those with an interest in the study of the brain will get a lot out of this book. Jensen presents the information in an easy-to-understand and engaging way. Lots of food for thought here. I didn't care for the narrator at all. She was too breathy and really over-enunciated everything. Is it really pronounced "neeeeeerohscience"? Took me a few hours to get used to her voice. Almost bailed on the audio version but didn't have time to read the book right now.

A lot like its subject matter . . . .
There's something good and valuable buried there somewhere, but it's hard to find amid all the noise. The substance is scattered and disorganized. And there's way (way, way, way) too much dwelling on the author and her family. Many of these passages are so out of place that you're dumbfounded that an editor didn't strike them. The result reads like a blog by an extremely proud mother who wants to give you parenting advice and who occasionally muses about neuroscience. Not my cup of tea.
