0:00.0	is it ever too late for a parent to change the way they're interacting with and parenting their
0:06.9	child? It's a powerful opportunity for parents to take that moment to heal and to say, you know what?
0:13.8	I may see it differently, but I hear you.
0:27.5	I want to introduce Dr. Charles Stofy. He's a board-certified psychiatrist. He's a former
0:33.5	medical director of the Department of Child and Family Services here in L.A. The largest
0:38.0	agency of its type in the entire United States. What do you think the difference is right now
0:44.0	with this particular generation? When I turned 16, you could get a driver's license when you were
0:49.2	16. Right. In some states now, it's what, 18? Some states, yeah. Yeah, but when I turned 16,
0:56.4	you could get it when you were 16. Yeah. So when I was 15, 364 days, 23 hours, and 59 minutes,

1:44.2	to have the urgency to get engaged involved with the world. Right. The way we did in an earlier
1:52.2	generation. Kind of sad a little bit because it's holding them back. And now, I think this
1:58.5	slows them down even more. Yes. A lot more because now they're leading with anxiety and lots of
2:04.2	academic issues and lots of social issues. And I say slow them down is though it's a bad thing.
2:09.4	They do what they want to do. It's not that it's wrong. It's different. Right. And it'll be an
