it's around that adolescence time. >> i was going to say don't teenagers need more sleep? they did a study, saying teenagers need more sleep, not less? >> that's right. teenagers, there seems to be a strong demand for sleep. >> how many hours? >> you can go to the national sleep range website. they will describe the ranges for you. 9 to 10 hours of sleep would be good a recommendation. . essential to many, not just body functions but also brain functions. we know it's critical for things like learning and memory. we know it's critical for emotional health and regulation and we know that many psychiatric mood disorders can start to emerge around that adolescent time where sleep the so critically needed but not being achieved. i think there's a collection of factors we need to understand. >> you have to be in a room which is pitch black. if you have a night light, will it keep you awake? >> as long as it's not a particularly bright light, that's okay. one of the problems, for example, if you leave the curtains open and if up don't want the bright light, the daylight is stron

as a beginning of a buffer for that adolescent. talk to us a little bit about that. sure. well, i think in just about every setting, a child exists in there are caring adults available, or there can be caring adults available who can be a protective factor to a child and help that child access their own inner resilience. so including things like helping children realize that they can use humor, that they can develop close relationships with safe adults. teaching children ways that they can be safe. okay, if you can't bring friends home because crazy things are happening there and you can't study there how can we put something in place so that you have a safe place to go after school? if you're concerned about your siblings then how can we make sure that their needs get met? so really, i think we just need to encourage adults to not ignore signs that a child is struggling and reach out to children and to kids to say if you have one caring adult in your life who is in your corner that can make all the difference for you. absolutely.

in particular, the teenagers because there's a very large population of adolescents who need support.hat the program is is the peer leadership program and what we've done is trained six peer leaders living with hiv and aids to provide social site support groups for children and teens on a monthly basis and do educational outreach on skills. >> so how much time did you spend when you go to the country like that? >> this time i'm going for three weeks. i have a lot i need to accomplish during my visit this time. >> are you posting information about this program on your website? >> yes, yes, yes, yes. >> people can learn more if they want to participate. perhaps you're looking for volunteers, donations? >> definitely donations. volunteers, not so much right now. this year we are going to hold our first youth retreat program in kenya, so it will be a three-day retreat for adolescents and support groups. >> i can't wait to learn more about this. thank you, great to see you. we do have to take another break. when we come back we'll meet an hiv positive woman and learn what she is doing to m

when we see how many sugar drinks that adolescents are drinking at a really critical time when their bones are developing, this is -- this can lead to really significant issues down the road where their bones aren't strong and it leads to easier fractures and so forth. so, another maybe perhaps relatively obvious consequence of drinking liquid sugar is it ultimately can lead to overweight. drinking a can of soda a day which is a 12 ounce can add about one proud of weight gain every month and if you're a soda drinker, you're more likely to drink a larger size or more than one can a day. and, so, this is significant because our bodies respond to sugar sweetened drinks, liquid sugars, however you want dual it. they act like it's food. your body will -- if you're drinking a sugar drink, your body will first focus on burning off the sugar. it will not work on the food first. it will work on the sugar. if you're drinking sugar in the morning, by lunch if your body hasn't finished burning through that sugar and you drink ail sugar drink at lunch, it will continue to focus on the drinks with

for the first time, the supreme court sided adolescents -- cited adolescent neuroscience. a 12-year-old brain develops. you will watch its start to mature until you hit about 24 or 25. for those of you who are parents, you do not need a scan. for those of us who went to adolescence, we know it was a time of poor decision making. the supreme court used the picture of the brain in order to make the decision. there is this nice development over time that is associated with changes in composition and changes in how you process the world and make decisions. ok. now you have another client named george. he is a 55-year-old white male offender. he has a history of being in and out of jail. his iq is very low. george has a very low iq, they might have to refer to him as being retarded. he has arrested for murder and the prosecution is seeking the death penalty. the supreme court said you are not allowed for individuals with low iqs. prosecution says the iq is 72, high enough to execute. is there anything that neuroscience can do about george? i am just kidding, this is george. [la

now adolescents is the key issue, what about adolescents? i spoke to the key of marketing to monster. they said it's death for our marketing to be aimed at adolescents, like marketing shirley temples to nascar drifrmts we have a very kind of edgy cut never, punk rock, exgames and for us to market to teenagers would basically destroy the -- >> let me push back on that a little bit because the contention of attorneys and some in the medical profession is that basically they -- they do start marketing to these kids younger so that they basically then continue drinking the drink when they become those elite athletes, when they become the 25-year-olds, that they start them early even though perhaps they are not directly marketing to them. that is a key demographic that they want to take all along. >> well, i mean, it's a very good point. again, they are not marketing to them. if you look at amount of energy drinks drunk 6-12, 4% of the total caffein intake, 13-17, only 7% of their total intake. now there is a thing called a monster army and they

>> i think the single thing is that black teenagers, black adolescents can't be the typical american teenager. they can't get into a fight ever. they can't experiment with pot. they can't take silly pictures on their cell phone or send you know silly sophomoric text messages to their friends. i've learned that you know, black teenagers have to live their lives beyond reproach because if they are killed, it will come back to haunt them. >> that's a tragedy. goldie taylor, james peterson and jonathan capehart, thank you all so much. coming up, how to defuse a filibuster. go nuclear. we'll be right back.

in my position there i researched strategies for preventing obesity in children and adolescents and i provide clinical care for patients at the pediatric general [speaker not understood]. when i'm in clinic i'm always struck by the numbers of children ho come in to checkup with preventable chronic diseases such as obesity. we are increasingly seeing children presenting at younger ages as christina mentioned with obesity related conditions seen mostly in adults such as fatty liver, high cholesterol and adult onset type 2 diabetes. it is projectedth the current generation of parents will live shortver lives than their parents. in addition to obesity we see children with dental carries that could have been prevented with hygiene and nutrition habits. one common link between obesity and cavities is sugar drinks. if adolescents drink water instead of drinks with added sugar this could lead to a number of health consequences. drink the water instead of sugar beverages can help children and teens consume 200 fewer calories per day. this suggest providing water at home or in school settings c

and especially use development, the real focus is the adolescent and early adult years. in terms of education how we might even help young people create a good direction for themselves, a good purpose that takes them through life in a fill the way. >> host: that ties into your newest book, failing liberty is the name of it. how we are leaving young americans unprepared for citizenship to begin here to my you right that the most serious danger americans now faces that our country's future may not end up in the hands of the citizenry capable for sustaining liberty. >> in any society of the talk but the future you're really talking about young people because they will inherit the society. we have a very precious blessing does not run itself. has to be managed by people that understand the rules of the game, the value, they appreciate . if you failed said transmit to the younger generation and appreciation of how important liberty and democracy are and knowledge about how the system works, how they can participate in a constructive way, if you fail to do that the future of t

they had everything to do with risk taking that adolescents do. so as a society if we can keep adolescents safe by making sure that the activities in which they engage in, these risk-taking activities, we can decrease the harm as much as possible and understand that the risk taking is normal be. and it's not some extreme aberrant behavior. so i try and show how all of these sort of things that i was doing, they were normal in the context. and if we understand the context, we might be able to keep people even more safe. >> so that argues, i suppose, for more proactive involvement in our student, in our young people's lives, the grown-ups in the communities need to do more, not wait for law enforcement to be the answer to whatever it is our children are doing. we need to provide some alternatives for them. >> yeah. so if you ever wait for law enforcement to serve, to solve your problem, you have already lost. law enforcement has no training in pharmacology to talk about drugs, no training in behavioral science. their training is to go at the crimina

it went from in 2002, from 78.8 percent of all youth that were in school receiving-adolescents, to be specific-that were receiving messages through their school-based environment, to 74.5 percent in 2011. what do you think happened? i know that for our programs in northern virginia, we do survey our youth annually, starting in 6th grade and going through 12th grade. and so, that has enabled us to learn a lot about exactly what's going on. we ask them about all kinds of behaviors and practices. so, it gives us more information than we used to have. and what information are you getting? we're learning which trends are improving, which ones are not, things- such as? such as suicidality, the number of youth who have considered or attempted suicide, bullying behaviors, the numbers of youth who have either reported that they have bullied or been bullied in the past year. and every year we are tweaking those surveys to get more information, listening to the partners as they say, you know, "i think we need to ask kids about this so we can get better information." so we're getting more informa

the real focus the adolescent and adult years or even how they could help to create a good direction for themselves to take them through life. >>host: and that ties into your newest book "failing liberty 101" how we are leaving young americans unprepared for citizenship in a free society." in here you write the most serious thing that americans now face great then terrorism that our future will not end up in the heads of the citizenry capable to sustain liberty that is been our most precious right. >> in the future you talk about the young people because they will inherit the society and we have a democracy a tremendous blessing it does not run itself and has to be managed by people who were understand the rules of the game who value and appreciate it if you fail to transmit the appreciation of how important liberty and democracy are and the knowledge about of how networks, how they can participate in constructive ways, if you fail to do that i think the democracy itself is in danger in the more than any foreign country could place us because with terms of military the economy but we

[laughter] >> since our report first aired, the great recession has significantly impacted the labor market for millennials. at the end of 2010, the unemployment rate in the u.s. for eligible workers under 30 was at its highest level in 60 years. but it's been widely reported that for many millennials, that sobering statistic only confirms their notion that the business-as-usual ethic doesn't work. and d

you have kids who are food insecure when they're adolescents.they're suffering with stress and suicidal ideation. that's what we find in our research. how can we -- >> bill moyers: suicide ideation? >> mariana chilton: suicidal ideation, so it's thinking about, "oh, what does it matter that i live?" it's thinking about killing yourself. these are very depressing and stressful experiences to experience hunger, to see your parents struggling with that and to struggle yourself. so when you -- what's happening is that we are developing a whole half of the country overall is really left out of the public dialog. they are underpaid, undervalued, unhealthy. and we can prevent this kind of -- and we can prevent this. that's why i think it's so important, what's so exciting about what witnesses to hunger is trying to accomplish is to make sure that people who know the experience of hunger and poverty firsthand are a part of the national dialog, that they're not silenced, they're not short of shamed over off in the corner, that they're actually front and
