@flowidealism @pbjgrace Yes, helpful. I’ve read both authors. I agree with Epstein analysis that there is danger in infantilizing teenagers and idolizing not growing up in today’s society.

There's a whole book called The Case Against Adolescence. Adolescence was created as a category in the 20th century. Prior to the 20th century, we didn't even have the category of adolescence.
Andrew Carnegie, Ben Franklin, John Muir, and Thomas Edison all began their professional careers at 13. Back in the 18th and 19th centuries in the U.S. and in much of the world, teenagers had pretty much adult-level responsibilities and started their lives. One of the biggest flaws in our society is the infantilization of adolescence.
Teen suicides have increased three times since the 1950s. I think education, traditional school, is humiliating for many kids who don't happen to be good at school.
The goal is for every TSE student to be doing adult-level professional work or better by the age of 18. I've had students start companies and write novels. I had one who was a day trader, somebody else who did a website for the American Idol finalist, had a student who did a music festival in Austin, a three-day music festival, 80,000 budget.

@pbjgrace @flowidealism “In Search For Adolescence” by Crystal Kirgiss is an excellent exploration of historical adolescence through literature. Yes there are very unique markers for today’s teens culture, it’s not a new phenomenon.

@flowidealism This is false
The teen years have historically been recognized in many ways
Apprenticeship was Adolescence
The Old Testament and the Gospels include Adolescence
(neither war nor Temple tax until age 20)
We have extended it
We expect less from it
We restrict it more than ever

PSA: statistics show a sharp rise in colorectal cancer for men under 40.
I’ve had multiple people in my circle diagnosed with later stage in their late 30s - early 40s.
I had a health scare at 32 & had a colonoscopy that found polyps.
Get checked out if something seems off 🙏
