[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 650623, member: 1157"] Yeah this goes back to the good old frontal lobe development thing... teenagers in general lack the cognitive ability to make rational decisions at times. They just don't have that reasoning ability until they're in their early 20s. A "typical teen" will eventually learn and grow out of it, a "difficult child" won't. Not without a lot more consequences and lessons, anyway. Our difficult kids seem to take longer in general to grow up. (and of course some never do). I did a lot of reading about this back in the day... Google "teenager" and "frontal lobe" and you'll find lots of articles. [/QUOTE]
