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, the 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 the constructive stress from peers and manage stress. Teenagers could benefit from tools such as a coping skills method and a Never Do list.
