Increasing virtual relationships and less face time are creating a quiet but growing crisis among teens. According to our guests, teenagers today are more disconnected from parents and friends and are missing the critical social feedback needed to develop healthy relationships. The segment explores the root of the disconnect, the threat it poses and offers advice on how to restore the lost connection. Ann Corwin, Ph.D., M.Ed., over the last 30 years, has listened to thousands of parenting stories, transforming those stories by explaining why kids behave the way they do, then giving parents & professionals tools they can use immediately for healthy changes to literally any parenting problem. Dr. Ann can be seen on COX Cable and Los Angeles-KCET- PBS TV show called "A Place of Our Own" (now syndicated throughout the US). Susan M. Heim is an author, editor and blogger, specializing in parenting, multiples, Christian and women's issues. She is a longtime editor for the bestselling Chicken Soup for the Soul series.She dispenses daily parenting advice and product reviews on her blog, Susan Heim on Parenting, at http://susanheim.blogspot.com.
