<p>A parent writes in asking how to pick up the pieces after her daughter shared a nude selfie with a boyfriend who then sent&nbsp;it to other boys at school. Dr. Lisa and Reena talk about how impulsive moments can lead to serious consequences, what can be done to make things right, and the legal implications of sharing nude photos. The episode also addresses what to say to kids about requesting, sending, or unexpectedly receiving nude photos, and the simple--but often overlooked--change to school policy that can make a big difference.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><u>Dr. Lisa’s Resources</u></strong></p><p>The New York Times, 1/2/18; <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/02/well/family/teenagers-stop-asking-for-nude-photos.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Teenagers, Stop Asking for Nude Photos</a>; By Dr. Lisa Damour</p><br><p>Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn&nbsp;@AskLisaPodcast, @LDamour, @ReenaNinan</p><br><p>Additional resources:</p><p><a href="https://www.drlisadamour.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.drlisadamour.com/</a></p><br><p>Ask Lisa is produced by:</p><p><a href="http://www.goodtroubleproductions.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Www.GoodTroubleProductions.com</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>

<p>Not getting into desired colleges can be devastating for teens and their parents. How can you help your child move past what feels like a major life setback? Dr. Lisa provides language that might be helpful in navigating this delicate moment. What do you say to friends and neighbors who put teens or their parents in an uncomfortable spot? Reena asks how you can help teens deal with feeling disappointed - and perhaps bitter about where other classmates got in - especially when they’ve put in a lot of hard work. Dr. Lisa also reminds parents that, regardless of where teens are going to college, there may still be work to do to get them ready for freshman year.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn&nbsp;<strong>@AskLisaPodcast, @LDamour, @ReenaNinan</strong></p><br><p><strong>Checkout Dr. Lisa’s website for more resources:&nbsp;</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.drlisadamour.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.drlisadamour.com/</a></p><br><p><strong>Ask Lisa is produced by:&nbsp;</strong></p><p><a href="http://www.goodtroubleproductions.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Www.GoodTroubleProductions.com</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
