    with modern science, we have learned that the prefrontal cortex hasn’t fully developed until around age 25. does that mean you’re a child at 24? no. but you are adolescent, and we should have some cognizance about that

      I have ADHD, I don’t think mine will ever fully develop.

      If you cannot behave like an adult by the age of 24 there’s something more wrong with you than your prefrontal cortex.

        This is not about behaviour, it’s about brain functions. Humans brains under the age of 25 function in a different way, because they are not fully developed, no matter what behaviour people learnt to show.

          I was 24 years old. I was the same person I am now that I’m over 50.
