CARA SARA

Cara Sara, sono la dottoressa Campiotti.

Tu dici che, nonostante i metodi ruvidi di tuo padre, sei “venuta su bene”. Arrivi addirittura a ipotizzare che la sua brusca razione nel momento del bisogno – l’incidente automobilistico di cui parli – ti abbia addirittura temprato. In ogni caso non sembra averti nuociuto.

Quanto dici insinua dubbi sul mio consiglio di “accogliere e contenere” l’adolescente. Non è inutile? Ma io ti chiedo: se tuo padre avesse risposto alla tua richiesta di soccorso dicendoti “arrivo subito, stai tranquilla, l’importante è che non ti sia fatta nulla…” pensi forse che non saresti “venuta su” bene? Io parto dall’assunto che saresti “venuta su” altrettanto bene.

Ora, mettiti nei miei panni. Secondo te che risposta dovrei consigliare ad un genitore che riceve dal figlio una richiesta di soccorso? La prima o la seconda? Se ritieni che sia con la prima che con la seconda il figlio “verrà su” bene, è chiaro che la risposta da consigliare è la seconda. Se ritieni che la risposta non intacchi l’educazione del figlio, allora è giusto pensare al suo benessere. 

A volte noi mescoliamo due temi: l’educazione e il benessere. Io stessa, forse, annuncio una conferenza che ha per tema l’educazione dei figli quando invece parlerò del loro benessere :-) 

P-HAKING mai pubblicata

P-HAKING

Sai cos'è p-hacking in statistica? Un trucco per pubblicare: tra centinaia di relazioni che collegano A e B ne cerchi una significativa.

 Qualcosa del genere avviene studiando i giovani. Guardiamo attraverso le tendenze generazionali per trovare quelle che ci suggeriscono un pericolo. Per esempio i tassi d’ansia e di suicidio. Ma altri indicatori sembrano migliori: compiono meno crimini e la gravidanza adolescenziale è in calo. Scommetto che anche a scuola (bullismo, teppismo) le cose vanno meglio.

Are fewer teens driving because of ride-sharing services such as Uber and Lyft? Not likely. First, these services usually require that riders be 18 years old or older, so most high school students can’t use them alone. In addition, Uber debuted in 2009 and Lyft in 2012, and the decline in getting a driver’s license began long before that.

What about drug use? The heyday of illicit drug use among teens—the vast majority of which is marijuana—was in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Use then plummeted in the early 1990s before going back up again through the 2000s and 2010s (see Figure 1.12
Note:DROGHE... LA DINAMICA

Yellow highlight | Location: 616

Why the different patterns for alcohol and drug use? Drug use, at least in most states, is illegal at any age. Any rule breaking is roughly equal for drug use whether you are over or under 21. Buying alcohol, however, becomes legal at 21—perhaps why this cautious generation is more likely to avoid it as teens yet still indulges after they turn 21. As more states legalize recreational marijuana for adults, this pattern may change.

Electronic devices and social media seem to be unique in their effect on sleep compared to older forms of media.

TV time is barely related to sleep time.
