Read key take-aways from a parent’s perspective

While driving to speak at the Families Connected Speaker Series event, titled “How to Be a Good Friend”, Katie Hurley was side-swiped by an unfriendly driver, but no one in the audience would have known it. Even though the driver did not stop, Hurley, psychologist and author of “No More Mean Girls”, “The Happy Kid Handbook” and “The Depression Workbook for Teens” showed no signs of agitation as she rolled through some powerful stats on the state of teen life.
