Puberty has changed dramatically: it starts earlier, lasts longer, and happens with a cell phone in hand. Today, the path through puberty begins in grade school and stretches well into high school, for some beyond.
Vanessa Kroll Bennett, co-author of This Is So Awkward and cohost of The Puberty Podcast (and parent to 4 teens herself), tackles the questions most frequently asked by the adults caring for kids between 8-18.

How to leave your own puberty baggage at the door
Why puberty looks so different from when you went through it
How to tackle the complex topics, starting with mood swings, brain development, and pornography.
