Don't get it twisted, we all love our teens. Unconditionally, wholeheartedly, every day of the year.

But sometimes, they can be mean.

Like, REALLY bloody mean.

And volatile. And aggressive. And all those other things that make you want to tear your hair out.

If you've ever raised a teen, none of that will come as any surprise. But what's the reason for it all? Why do our teenagers turn into Mean-Agers?

That's the question that mum of six Madeline West and Child Psychologist Angela Murray are trying to answer in the debut episode of Mean-Agers: the handbook on parenting teens that you've always wanted, but could never get your hands on.

Thanks to Uncle Jack Charles for the acknowledgment of country.
