An essential guide to how our teens develop—and the hidden emotional load they carry
Every teen walks into school or home with two backpacks. One you can see. It’s full of textbooks, pencils, maybe a forgotten granola bar. The other? It’s invisible. And it’s heavy.
Inside that second backpack is everything adults don’t see: anxiety, heartbreak, self-doubt, online pressures, and emotional burdens many teens don’t yet have words for. And yet, too often, we judge them as if they aren’t carrying anything at all.
In The Two Backpacks, educator and podcast host Dr. Jordan Lauer opens our eyes to what teens are really experiencing—psychologically, socially, and neurologically. Combining cutting-edge brain science with poignant real-world stories from the classroom and home, this book equips parents, teachers, and mentors to move from frustration to understanding.
What if your teen’s outburst wasn’t disrespect—but a stress response? What if the behavior wasn’t defiance—but survival?
This book helps us unpack what our teens carry—so we can help them carry it better.
JORDAN LAUER is a veteran educator and co-host of the Educational Warfare podcast. He holds a doctorate in Learning Organizations and Strategic Change from Lipscomb University and is passionate about bringing innovative change to education. He lives with his wife, Ashley, and their children in Columbia, Tennessee.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
