When does a habit become a compulsion?

Dr. Gold will unpack how digital technology affects the developing brain, how sports betting has crept into the lives of young people, and how body image pressures can cross into dangerous territory.

What an insightful event last night! Our panel of independent school teens were kind, authentic, and well spoken. We even had moderator extraordinare, Lucy Gianino, reunite with Mariana Weiss, current independent school parent, PIA facilitator, and once teen panelist as a freshman at Sacred Heart in 2002. It was truly a full circle moment!

What is life really like for NYC independent high school teens?

We are proud to mark the 40th Anniversary of Teen Scene—our signature event dedicated to pulling back the curtain on the adolescent experience.

In a world of digital footprints, we are keeping this milestone celebration strictly "in the room." This is a rare, safe space for parents to hear directly from a panel of NYC teens on the topics that matter most: from academics, stress, parties, drinking, drugs, gender identity, consent, mental health and more.

Join us for this special 40th Anniversary session. No cameras, no recordings—just real talk.

Date: Thursday, February 26, 2025
Time: 6:00 - 7:30 pm
