Real Newport Beach

How much do you need to know about what’s going on in your children’s lives once they start to be independent?  Jr. and Sr. high school is a time when our kids get confronted by a myriad of social challenges - relationships, new social circles, alcohol, drugs - there’s a long list - but what should we be watching?  Licensed child psychologist Dr. Cynthia Baker has seen it all and she has some advice for us.  There’s a fine balance we need to strike to let our kids grow up, but still keep our finger on the pulse.  You’ll find this interview very useful.  I met with Dr. Baker at her offices in Newport Beach.
