The videos tell us that the best way parents can deal with the changes happening in the teenage brain is to simply be there for them whenever they need someone and to maintain a good healthy relationship with their children.

Adults are shown to rely on the frontal cortex which leads to balanced thinking and behavior. In contrast, teens most of the time rely on the part of the brain called the amygdala, an emotional part of the brain.

In adults, the frontal cortex part of our brain that preforms reasoning, planning, judgment and impulse control is fully developed at ages 23-26. In teens the frontal cortex is still developing, which explains the reason behind impulse behavior and poor decision making.

Teenagers have been proven to respond differently to the emotions of other people. In a study of teens,when viewing different emotions given to them, they used a different part of their brain to process the information than adults did. Their conclusions were also different than those of the adults, they viewed what was interpreted as fear for adults as anger. This shows that teens interpret different interactions differently, often resulting in a clash between parents and their teens.

The teen brain is still developing and growing. Only certain cells and connections can grow and survive into their adult lives. For example, if a teen is spending a lot of time playing and learning music, these cells and connections are more likely to become hardwired into their adult life than other cells and connections that are not being used. As the brain matures in the adult life, it is harder to learn new things and remember the information.

The parts of our brains that allow us to make connections with the different parts of the brain are not fully developed during the teen years. These connections don't fully develop until the early twenties, which are early adult years. This impacts the brains ability to process information as a whole picture.
