| Summary |
It is not altogether surprising that teenagers, especially teenage boys, are Australia's most dangerous citizens. This statement is based on the latest statistics from the Australian Institute of Criminology. But why are teens and teen boys especially feral and violent? It would be great to have a panel of the teenage, the feral and the violent; but it might be a pretty sullen collection. So, in their absence, this isn't a bad panel.There is writer and actor Brendan Cowell; renowned author on the topic of parenting, Steve Biddulph; writer and journalist whose debut novel is titled Wild Things, Brigid Delaney; and lastly Michael Parker, the Headmaster of Oxley College in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales.Paola Totaro moderates the session at the Sydney Writers' Festival |
