Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

    *says that teenagers are adults, claims scientific facts with no source whatsoever

    You have veered off into totally irrelevant nonsense about neural pathways.

    Lol.

    We get adult brains along with our adult bodies during puberty. That is scientific fact.

    Ha, good one. Your alternative science doesn’t quite fit the actual scientific papers I quoted for you earlier. Weird, right?

    But okay, I think now I understand the reason why you can’t understand the concept of maturity. Quite obvious, now that I think about it.

    Have a nice day!

      Odd how our bodies reach adult height and brains adult size during puberty :-)

      You have cherrypicked your sources. All of neurology points to very fact that brains develop very quickly ages 9-13 and then very slow change from that point on.

      but that data doesn’t support your bigotry, so you ignore it.

        Incidentally teen brains aged 13-15 perform best on several types of cognitive test.

        again, data that bigots choose to ignore.

          Teens are adults. We reach Tanner Stage 5 on average at 14 years of age now. This is not in dispute. The science is clear. You just dislike it, so you deflect to irrelevant garbage about some neural pathways that change a bit when you’re 20 :-D
