Kyra Pope · Answer 1

Personal fable

Explanation:

A personal fable is a phenomenon that occurs with teens. In this phenomenon, the teen thinks that they are unique and invulnerable. They are special in the world. The personal fable is a normal cognitive error at this stage. But unfortunately, it is sometimes dangerous for teens because of the personal fable in teens.

Thus here Roberto was arguing with his father on driving because of the personal fable attitude in the teenager.
