By the way, the “people’s brains aren’t fully developed until they are 25” claptrap is just as much bullshit as the earlier “we only use 10% of our brains” nonsense that preceded it. Both are based on shoddy understandings of incomplete research — for instance, the study that people have used to conclude that the prefrontal cortex keeps changing until age 25 only studied people age 21-25. No one older.

Later studies showed that your PFC keeps changing into your 30s and beyond. Unsurprisingly. The brain is dynamic unto death.

I cannot emphasize how absolutely and fully horseshit the idea that the “brain doesn’t mature fully until age 25” is. It’s dipshit clown crap of the highest order.
