Why is this generation of young people facing an unprecedented mental health crisis? The answer lies in a dramatic collision between their brains and the world they inhabit.

In this episode, we explore Matt Richtel's vital new book, How We Grow Up, to reveal the science behind the adolescent brain—an ancient engine built for exploration, with a powerful accelerator and a still-developing braking system. Discover what happens when this brain slams into the perfect storm of modern pressures: earlier puberty, digital overload, and a culture of fear. Through compelling science and unforgettable personal stories, we unpack why today's adolescence is a completely new experience. This isn't just about understanding the crisis; it's about finding hope and actionable solutions for parents, educators, and teens themselves.

为何这一代年轻人正面临着前所未有的心理健康危机？答案，就在于他们的大脑与所处世界之间的一场惊人对撞。

在本期节目中，我们将深入探讨Matt Richtel的新作《我们如何长大》，为你揭示青少年大脑背后的科学——一个为探索而生的古老引擎，它拥有强大的“油门”，但“刹车系统”仍在发育之中。当这个大脑撞上由“更早的青春期、数字信息的过载、以及弥漫在整个社会中的恐惧文化”所构成的完美风暴时，会发生什么？通过引人入胜的科学和令人难忘的个人故事，我们将为你剖析，为何今天的青春期是一种全新的体验。这不仅是为了理解危机，更是为了给父母、教育者和青少年自己，找到希望与行动指南。
