    (c/p) The rational part of a teen's brain isn't fully developed and won't be until age 25 or so. In fact, recent research has found that adult and teen brains work differently. Adults think with the prefrontal cortex, the brain's rational part.

    Parts of the brain involved with making judgments are that late in development, which is why kids go in for jackass stunts and drug abuse (source - book  The Teenage Brain). Actually, the brain changes throughout one's life. New learning creates new connections between brain cells. You're never too old to learn.

    25 or so for females, a couple of years later for males. Yes, it is true that they are not done cooking so to speak. But part of that is intentionally, risk and reward, we needed the ones to take the greater risks on occasion so the group could survive and such.

    It is true that your brain by the time you're 72 years old and just about to die is only 16% developed. The human brain never ever develops to even 25% of its potential in the human life that we're now leading. This definitely tends to support the creation story that we were meant to live forever.
