Over the last couple of years, the political climate has gotten contentious. That sentiment has caused people to shy away from discussing politics and government with their children. Despite that, teens still think it’s important to follow current events, politics included. A recent survey of teens aged 13–17 found that 1/3 of respondents relied on their parents, family members, or teachers for information. We need to do the work to help guide them and make them feel safe talking to us.

This week, we brought in Lindsey Cormack - an associate professor of Political Science and Director of the Diplomacy Lab. Her latest book, How to Raise a Citizen & Why it’s Up to You to Do It, aims to reinvigorate multigenerational political discussion and governmental know-how. We talk about what to keep in mind when listening to teens’ views on issues and 5 things teens must do before they fully participate in politics. (Don't forget about being more informed in your local and state government too!) Stay tuned until the end where we also discuss our Top 5 craziest laws.
