Thank you, Alan. I love the RSA series and this one is wonderful. To understand how young people live in a present, hedonistic state can help adults understand that kids' risk consideration is vastly different.With a teen son who is technologically proficient, I will attest to the fact that he finds traditional schooling extremely boring!

Coincidentally (or not!) I just today, in working to help a client alleviate anxiety, commented about the more relaxed lifestyle of cultures in exotic locales (i.e. located closer to the Equator). We have, in our society, falsely learned that it is important to exist in a heightened and unhealthy state of nervous response.

Time perspective is a fascinating phenomenom to consider and I imagine it can influence our work greatly.
