Promoting Resilience in Teenagers

Teenage years are full of constant changes, challenges and demands. While growing up, teenagers have hopes, dreams and goals and sometimes experience disappointments. They also face new demands from their caregivers and school.

This presentation talks about ways caregivers can nurture resilience in teenagers so they can attain the skills they need to handle new challenges and struggles. Resiliency allows teens to persevere, function and learn from their life experiences.
