Kathryn interviews psychology professor Jean Twenge PhD, author of “iGen: Why Today’s Super-Connected Kids Are Growing Up Less Rebellious, More Tolerant, Less Happy – And Completely Unprepared for Adulthood”. They are glued to the internet, socialize in person less and have higher rates of anxiety and depression. They party less, get along better with their parents and are more open-minded than any generation before them. Dr. Twenge analyzes data from decades of studies to bring us closer to understanding this next generation and our future.
