Coming of Age: The Science of Adolescence

Why do teenagers copy their friends? Why does being one of the "cool kids" backfire later in life? Is there really a teenage mental health crisis? Coming of Age is hosted by Lucy Foulkes and Jack Andrews, psychologists at the University of Oxford who study adolescence for a living. Each week they take one thing about being a teenager - or raising one - that nobody quite understands, and actually explain it: real research and a lot more reassurance than the headlines usually offer.
