☆ Teens feel less emotional support than their parents think they do, new report shows
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-16 | by ( Deidre Mcphillips | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +7 min

CNN —As a youth mental health crisis persists in the US, a new report highlights a significant gap between the level of support that teenagers feel and the amount that parents think their children have. Parents responded to survey questions from trained interviewers, while children responded to survey questions online after their parents gave approval. “This suggests a systematic bias where parents consistently report higher levels of social and emotional support compared with their teenager’s perception, and in doing so may underestimate their teenager’s perceived need for social and emotional support,” the study authors wrote. And the new report shows that teens who did not feel that they always or usually had the support they need were significantly more likely to report a number of poor health effects than those who did feel supported. Two-thirds of teens who did not feel supported reported poor sleep, compared with about a third of those who did feel supported.

"It is a luxury, absolutely," Brooke Kimbrough, cofounder and CEO of Roots Surrogacy, told BI. All the surrogacy agencies BI spoke with said it's essentially never the case that someone opts for surrogacy simply for vanity reasons. Perhaps the primary drawback to pursuing concurrent surrogacy (that is, besides the high price tag) is the logistics of it. Jarret Zafran, founder and executive director at Brownstone Surrogacy, told BI that it's not necessarily only the ultrawealthy who pursue concurrent surrogacy. But he's still not totally sure why they chose to do concurrent journeys rather than space the children out a bit more.

If and when "Night Curfew" and the other parental controls are released publicly, they'll add to the other features that help Teslas stand out from other cars.

A good leader can't be afraid to get their hands dirty, according to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. Years later, he would hatch the idea for Nvidia with his co-founders in a booth at the same Denny's where he'd once cleared tables, washed dishes and even cleaned toilets. "To me, no task is beneath me because, remember, I used to be a dishwasher [and] I used to clean toilets," Huang said in a March interview at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. Whenever possible, the longtime CEO likes to show his employees his reasoning for a suggestion or solution he offers. That structure improves Nvidia's performance by allowing information and strategy to flow more directly between Huang and Nvidia's other leaders, according to Huang.

At the corner of Iris Ave and Folsom in North Boulder, my Model 3 Tesla was self-driving when it showed up two human drivers in the lane just in front of us. All three of us were turning left — two flesh-and-blood drivers and my robot — when the two humans violated a basic traffic rule by swinging wide and turning into the right hand lane. The Tesla hugged the inside lane, as the driver manual indicates is the proper rule of the road. On the other hand, my son is less likely than the Tesla’s software to suddenly disengage and just stop steering altogether (requiring me to take over). Seen through the lens of cognition and neuroscience, the contrast says a lot about the next generation of drivers.

Somehow, we are supposed to know what to do when our kids start dating. I had three kids in three and a half years, and now that they're all teens, we are in the thick of teen dating. One of the best things you can do is to show interest in learning about the people your teens are dating. Doing this shows your teen how much you love them and helps you get to know the person your teen is dating. There will likely be some disagreements when your teens are dating, but with good communication, you can get to the other side together.
