I was going to try and push through my flu to record an episode for today but I just couldn't do it. Instead, I have a quick personal message. Thank you for your patience and I'll be back next week (fingers crossed). 

Speaking of Teens is sponsored by https://neurogility.com, an organization I founded after our family went through a couple of difficult years with our teenage son who struggled with ADHD, learning issues, horrible anxiety, major depression and all the associated academic, social, self-medication, legal and behavior issues. When we finally got on the right track, I decided to learn everything I could about the science of parenting adolescents so I could help you avoid the common parenting mistakes I’d made.
