High performance cars can go from zero to sixty in just a few seconds. Anger can feel a lot like that for teens. One minute they are calm, but the next, something sets them on a course to speed out of control. Getting to anger amp rsquo s edge too fast can get teens in trouble. Teens will learn how to calm their body, derail thoughts that fuel anger and learn how to communicate and de-escalate situations.
