Love that research
"The fundamental question is, are children capable of understanding the consequences of their actions? Maybe not; recent studies suggest that the brain’s prefrontal lobe, which some scientists speculate plays a crucial role in inhibiting inappropriate behavior, may not reach full development until age 20."
And yet we recruit boys and girls at the age of 18 to join the military and send them to Iraq to die...
The good part is that our ability to determine the consequences of our actions is developed riiiight before we're legally able to drink and impair it again!
This also explains my first marriage...
I should research things more often... No one ever told me there were things I could actually LEARN on the internet! I thought it was just blogging, emails, porn and games.
Oh, the places I'll go...
If only I could learn to stuff using so many ellipses... :-)
