You've read the books. You know the strategies. You've tried stepping back — and you watched what happened next. Your teenager is thirteen. Or fifteen.

They're staring at a blank document — and quietly deciding that something must be wrong with them. Nothing is wrong with them. What's missing is a set of skills psychologists call executive function: the mental tools the brain uses to start things, plan things, remember things, and keep going when they get hard. School grades teenagers on these skills constantly — and teaches them almost never. This is the manual their brain should have come with. Written to teenagers rather than ...
