Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A Mile Wide and an Inch Deep is the first metaphor used in this different way of looking at adolescence in America. While many are caught up in recent literature about teen brain function and cognitive development, sometimes people just need a bigger perspective to understand the smaller beh…aviors. This is the goal of A Mile Wide. Adolescence is the second greatest growth phase we ever go through, second only to birth-to-two years old. Over just a couple of years, kids radically change body shapes and sizes, their perception of the world and their role in it, they begin breaking away from the family, they create a stronger attachment to peers, and acquire a taste for more adult behavior. They are sexually capable and active. They experiment with other behaviors that scare us adults but that we likely indulged in ourselves in our own youth. What seems to bother most people about adolescence is its testing process, which many people refer to as defiant or rebellious. I don't think that is completely accurate, at least in early adolescence. It is not that teens begin by merely flouting the rules, but it's more about them needing to see if the reality they have been taught as children really stands up to testing. They need to prove for themselves the ways of the world. If guided, as in a rite of passage model, then the testing is met with healthy resistance and accommodation, helping teens come to adult conclusions about the world and their role in it. For example, teens start shifting into adulthood when they learn the difference between the idealistic teen hope of the way the world should be versus the way it actually is. The trick is not to burst all their dreams and goals, and also not squelch their curiosity and subsequent growth from their behavior and experiences. After all, don't we learn our deepest and most important lessons from our mistakes? If we stop teens from being able to experiment and push the boundaries a bit, we deny them this growth opportunity. Of course, boundaries and consequences around their behavior have to happen to keep teens from getting too far out of control, but we must stop pathologizing teens for testing those boundaries. They are not wrong or bad by simple virtue of testing our norms and values. Too many people misunderstand the need to test and learn with some alleged plot to just be defiant and devious for fun. It may seem, or feel like that, but it is a necessary process. Since we all know that we learn many of our most important life lessons through our mistakes, we have to allow them enough room to slip and grow without totally shutting down their ability to experiment a bit. Adolescents serve a greater function in society than most adults realize. For much of the past hundred years, teens have been made more and more irresponsible, which now many adults sadly hold against teens. The attempt of this book is to give the reader a wide variety of ways to understand and think about the process and challenge of adolescence. The goal has been to give readers numerous ways to ponder this incredible developmental period, too often misunderstood. Twenty essays offer a unique view of the world of teens, and help explain many of the "Why do they do it?" questions so many adults dealing with teens have.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Imagine a great movie about adolescence like Rebel Without a Cause or The Breakfast Club with a written commentary rather than a DVD audio one. For years I have used movies about teens to learn and grow from. As a movie fan, and as I became more entrenched in the world of teenagers, I found…myself looking at teen movies in a couple different ways. With each new teen film, I would just turn off my brain and enjoy the movie. But then I found myself watching the same movie again with my 'adolescent filters' on and a legal pad & pen for keeping notes. I saw countless useful pieces in almost every movie, from hedonistic party-driven films like Dazed and Confused to true-life tearjerkers like Freedom Writers. Classics like West Side Story and American Graffiti or musicals like Footloose, all gave me great material to use in helping parents and other adults involved with teens a venue to learn from. While researching for my first book, From Boys to Men: Spiritual Rites of Passage in an Indulgent Age, I learned of a somewhat unknown spike of delinquent and adolescent discontent in the 1950s. Beginning with Catcher in the Rye in 1951, through James Dean's brilliance and into West Side Story, the undercurrent of teen problems was coming to the surface. The youth of the 50s were children of two wars, and not buying into the post-WWII I Love Lucy and Father Knows Best vision of suburban America. The idea for tracking the adolescent undercurrents through the past 100 years or so originally came to me from a teen, which seems appropriate. Almost 30 years of working with adolescents has taught me a great deal, much of which I hope to share in this book. My nephew created a PowerPoint slide show in lieu of a boring book report on Catcher in the Rye. He began the report with a quick look at what was happening in 1951 when Catcher in the Rye was published and quickly became one of the most banned books in American history. In his first few slides, he pointed out that "It's 1951 and the US is celebrating.the war is over.I Love Lucy started its first season.rock & roll was about to top the charts" Next, my nephew explained that "The US was happy.not realizing problems that were right under their nose. That's why J.D. Salinger decided to publish a wakeup call." While writing my first book I started thinking about movies that might have come out around the same time as Catcher or that also showed a different side of the teen story. While most 50's teen movies were wholesome and positive, I recalled a few that fit the "undercurrents" profile. A couple of classics and a couple of not-so-famous movies came to mind. In 1953 we first saw Marlon Brando as The Wild One, a reenactment of an actual motorcycle gang that had taken over a small southern California town. The wholesome town residents are completely lost in how to deal with a new form of trouble: delinquent and violent young people. The section in my book about this period and films became one of the most popular components of my workshops. When on-line streaming and rentals, as well as inexpensive movie sales arrived, I realized I could finally write a book where readers could watch the film and read my comments on adolescence. By deeply paraphrasing each movie, even people who could not view each of the ten classic films I use in Undercurrents could learn a lot about teens and adolescence. And because I have strongly paraphrased the movie plots and scripts, you can learn a lot even without the movies at hand. This item is printed on demand.
