A Talk About Puberty for adults with Authors Cara Natterson MD & Vanessa Kroll Bennett

Thursday, May 2, 6:30 at Bridgehampton School - hosted in collaboration with Bridgehampton Childcare & Recreation Center.

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.

Combining science and storytelling with actionable guidance, she will offer advice for:

  • 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.
