Inside Out – Teen Talk, what really goes on in our teens head?

Just like Riley in the movie Inside Out, our teens are going through so many emotions at this point in their lives- called the teenage years. It is important for parents to know what these changes are.

Join us as we take a deep dive into the world of teens in 2024, where rapid change and intense emotions define their journey to adulthood. Discover the complexities of their development, the emotional rollercoaster they ride, and the pressures of thriving in today’s fast-paced, competitive world. Learn how we can better understand, guide and support them through these transformative years.

Join our panel discussion where we ask doctors from International Medical Clinic (IMC) who are also parents of teens the secret to surviving the rollercoaster teen years!
