It’s difficult being a teen these days. Many parents didn't have to deal with the stress of social media, cyber bullying and school shootings. But most parents probably had an episode of teen angst while they were growing up and trying to navigate the teen years with raging hormones. It's no surprise that occasionally self-doubt, stress and anxiety too center stage. But it's not easy for some parents to be able to distinguish between what is normal teenage behavior and when it could be something more serious like anxiety or depression. And when is it time to seek professional help? Those are the issues discussed in this episode. Monica Robins is not a medical doctor.  All content presented in this program is for informational purposes only.
