Episode 16 Teen Talk: Can't do the things I want to do
from Teen Talk: Growing Together - Family Edition · host Pei-I Yang
What do you think are the things that teenagers want to do but can't do? Teenage years are often defined by "not-yets" No driving, no late nights, or no independence. But what if that feeling extends beyond curfew and car keys? What if the "not-yets" of adolescence morph into full-on roadblocks, preventing teens from pursuing their passions, exploring their identities, or even leaving school? On the other hand, we also have teenagers who want to go to school but can’t. Join us as we unpack the frustrations, complexities, and hidden possibilities of teenage limitations who want to drop out of school. This isn't just about complaining about curfews – it's about questioning the systems, structures, and expectations that might be holding teens back. ________________________________________________________ I am Pei-I. 🐉, I help high-achieving mums bring back harmony and help their teens whose complex behaviour is influenced by social, emotional, behavioural, psychological and neurodevelopmental factors (SEBPN) learn self-management skills and make empowered choices in 90 days using TTP method.
