The supercharged teen brain has a hard time

recalling childhood memories

seeing the consequences of a risky decision

creating new memories in long-term memory

taking risks due to fear of being injured

It's difficult to see the effects of a risky decision in the stressed teen mind.

Explanation:

The teen brain is physiologically different from the brain of a child or an adult. The teen brain is interested to take risks and trying new things. Moreover, adolescent cerebellum is also easily manipulated by social pressure and can convert a poor decision into a bad habit.

Whereas the brain is in the same vulnerable state, it is crucial for teenagers not to make dangerous decisions to get around with the constructive stress from peers and manage stress. Teenagers could benefit from tools such as a coping skills method and a Never Do list.
