When Max Dubrow started her I'll Give It to You Straightish podcast, she wanted to offer teens a voice of support during these sometimes-trying years. What she didn't expect was parents of teens to rapidly fill her listener base. Max realized that parents are hungry to understand what issues their kids are facing and teens are looking for ways to convey just how different their experiences are from their patents'. No previous generation has faced the combination of anxiety, school and parental pressure, social media, friend and relationship complexities, and gender and sexuality discussions-not to mention COVID-19-that this one is facing right now. In addition to Max's own perspectives, the book includes insights from clinical and forensic neuropsychologist Dr. Judy Ho, key takeaways for parents, and quotes from teens. In I'll Give It to You Straightish, Max pulls back the curtain on the emotional life of today's teens, providing valuable insight to anyone close to a Gen Z teen. Book jacket.
