Quick write:
In your opinion based on everything we have read, watched and discussed about the teenage brain, how should teenagers be treated and why? I think that even though a teenagers brain is still developing until the age a 25, right is right and if your gonna commit a crime like murder and brutally killing someone they should be put in to jail just like everyone else the did heinous crimes.

In the article " A Brain Too Young for Good Judgement " Daniel Weinberger argued that Andy Williams the shooter from the Santana High School shooting said, No matter what the town or the school,if a gun is put in the control of the prefrontal cortex of a hurt and vengeful 15 year-old, and it is pointed at a human target, it will very likely go off. Scientists have shown that the pace of the biological refinements quickens considerably in late adolescence, as the brain makes a final maturational push to tackle the exigencies of independent adult life.

Reflection:
A time that I took a risk and won is when I got pregnant and decided to have my baby. At first I didn't think it having my son was a risks but if you think about it anyone having a baby is a risk. There are so many risks that could happen when being pregnant and having a baby period, The rate of severe complications during and after delivery have also doubled in the last decade, according to a 2012 federal study. Near-misses, where a woman nearly dies, increased by 27 percent. I'm grateful that during my pregnancy and after my labor I was fine and my son was a health baby boy.
A time when I had took a risk and it turned out to be a bad risk was when I was I was younger and I went I bike riding with my cousin on dirt mountain and I ended up getting stuck on the top and almost falling to my death.

Quick write:How much of our brain do we actually use ?
"It turns out though, that we use virtually every part of the brain, and that [most of] the brain is active almost all the time," Gordon adds. "Let's put it this way: the brain represents three percent of the body's weight and uses 20 percent of the body's energy.
