In this crisis, teens and young adults sent home from college pose different challenges for families than young children ([link removed])who need to be occupied and reassured. For starters, families are reporting problems persuading their older children to comply with social distancing rules. Combine the teenager's innate sense of invulnerability, their intense focus on peers, and the fact that the virus is less likely to harm them, and you may get a lot of pushback. 

This week on childmind.org ([link removed]) we talk to our experts about this and other issues affecting teenagers and young adults ([link removed]), including those who are depressed or anxious, disappointed about missing important milestones in their lives and worried about their futures. 

And in another new piece we offer steps you can take to ensure your own well-being during this crisis — self-care ([link removed]) that will benefit your whole family by helping you stay strong.
