It starts, on average, two years earlier and stretches through high school . . . and for some, beyond. Gens Z and Alpha are also contending with a whole host of thorny issues that parents didn’t experience in their own youth but nonetheless need to understand: everything from social media and easy-access pornography to gender identities and new or newly-potent drugs. Talking about any of this is like puberty itself: Awkward! But it’s also critical for the health, happiness, and safety of today’s kids.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBewildered adults have begged for reliable and relatable information about the modern adolescent experience. \u003ci\u003eThis Is So Awkward \u003c\/i\u003eanswers their call.
