Inside the Teenage Brain

All over the world problems fill the teenage brain. It is incredible to see that most of these problems come from bad habits. Most of the time teenagers do not know the importance of getting a long night sleep and just make the decision of going to bed at 12:00, 1:00 or even 2:00 in the morning. This causes lots of different effects. Not paying attention in class, doing bad in school, changes in personality and unstable emotions are some of the effects that teenagers suffer when they choose not to sleep well. It is also interesting to see how the brain develops. It is common for people to say that teens are, and think the same as adults, but having a teen do stuff that adults do, is not right. The frontal lobe is the part of the brain in which the reasoning, logic, and emotions are always present. As time passes this lobe has to change and get mature enough so that decisions are wiser and not until this happens, teens are no more and no less than teens. It is very common that parents do not understand their kid and this takes the family into issues that will require lots of effort to solve. Just think about it, every teen wants to be independent, but this independence, is for many, difficult to acquire. For this to happen, parents must show that they trust the way in which each of their children take decisions. Teenage brains are just in the phase in which they change drastically. Live IT, Understand IT.
