| So Dr. Smith, there is a real reason why adolescents sometimes have difficulty making good decisions? | |
|
| Yes, the Pre-frontal cortex, which controls such things as impulse control, is not yet fully developed. | |

|
|
| What can adolescents do to help them understand why they do the things they do? | |
|
| Well, they should look into taking a class at school like Mrs. Ciano and Mrs. Reganato's Adolescent Psychology class. That would be a good first step. | |
