What is Adolescence?
Why They Act As They Do and What You Can Do About It.
Anthony Wolf, PhD.
Dr.
Wolf is a clinical psychologist and an author of many published books on
adolescents, including Get Out of My Life, But First Could You Drive me
and Cheryl to the Mall?
Dr.
Wolf is best known both in his writing and his speaking for his, at times very
funny and non-judgmental, ability to describe what actually goes on in real
people's homes with real children, his original perspective on parenting and on
kids today, and for his practical and very helpful advice.

This
is a powerful presentation for parents of youth and not to be missed! Free and

Our
Mission
The
Adolescent Institute is a resource for the youth of Bryn Mawr
Presbyterian
Church and the surrounding community.
Its goal is to help youth and their families
find loving care as well as
professional guidance and support as they navigate the sometimes
churning
waters of adolescence. Believing
that
adolescents are loved by God and valued members of this community, the
Adolescent Institute seeks to provide a safe place for youth to explore
not
only the normal challenges of the teen years, but also find support and
guidance
when these issues are problematic or the struggles become overwhelming.
Individual and family
counseling, support
groups, educational programs, retreats, and grants are offered through
the
Adolescent Institute as needed or requested by youth or their families.
A Safe Place for Youth
