As teens with a still maturing brain, we have a chance to habituate to risky situations, scenarios, and actions. The main point that the speaker is trying to make is that in teens, we can make dangerous and harmful choices in our lives. We have a habituation to risks, due to a habituation of risk behavior(s). I don't really agree, nor disagree with the speaker. I'm mostly just indifferent to the information. Some teens participate in risky behavior while others don't.]]> 2020-11-06 16:12:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898099452 nrodriguez219 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898103213 The main point the speaker is trying to make is that habituation changes teen's brain. Habituation is like getting used to, it helps one understand how the brain adapts to certain behaviors. This plays a major role when it comes to teens taking risk because their brains are still maturing and teens take a lot of risks especially because of the influence they are surrounded by. I agree with the speaker's view, she is absolutely right. Teens brain aren't fully matured and they do a lot of risk without really thinking. Teens take a lot of risks though because of what they see other teens doing online and also from what they see teens do in school especially like their friends. They see people do stuff that are risks and they think it's cool because others are doing it. ]]> 2020-11-06 16:13:40 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898103213 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898103405 I think that the point the speaker is trying to make is that habituation can change a teenagers brain by it impacting their emotions which leads them to take more risks and  which may also impact self-control and/or decision making. I agree with her point of view because teenagers don't have a fully developed brain so they become more interested with risk-taking behavior.]]> 2020-11-06 16:13:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898103405 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898114208 The main idea that the writer is trying to make is that the more exposed teenagers are to risks, the more of a chance that they're willing to take it. Habituation changes, leaving teens less likely to turn down something they said no to in the past. I agree because I feel that when you keep asking/pressuring someone they eventually give in due to peer pressure or because they are under stress and just want to get it over with. ]]> 2020-11-06 16:16:17 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898114208 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898118146 The main point the speaker is trying to make is that although teenagers are told the risk and wrongs of taking drugs and alcohol. Teenagers still take in the drugs because of the influence society had or family members which makes them think its ok or it's good/cool. I agree with her point of view because there are many drug ads that make it seem as there is no danger to drinking alcohol or smoking because it looks fun or cool.]]> 2020-11-06 16:17:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898118146 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898118951 I think the speaker was trying to say how and why teens 13-18 are more vulnerable to risk taking like smoking and drinking.I agree with her view because teens are scared that its illegal and bad but exposure makes them addicted.]]> 2020-11-06 16:17:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898118951 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898125735 I think her point that she is trying to make is that habituation which is getting use to something plays a big role on risk taking. I agree with her point of view because if you get use to something you will most likely keep doing it.]]> 2020-11-06 16:19:09 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898125735 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898127017 Dorriana

I am not a person to take bad risks. I don't feel the need to reassess my behaviors, actions, and/or choices. This talk wont really change anything about my life, behavior, actions, or choices because they aren't really bad risks.]]> 2020-11-06 16:25:38 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898153368 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898153942 I like this talk because it can open the eyes of young teenagers the affects of taking drugs and it also shows the parents whats going on. My behaviors and choices stay the same, I still think taking drugs is dangerous because you can become addicted if your not careful and because of the affects it has on your body.]]> 2020-11-06 16:25:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898153942 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898155134 I believe that what she said made sense and was relatable.I guess it can make you think twice of what you do/or say to anyone and make you think twice of the consequence]]> 2020-11-06 16:26:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898155134 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898157640 I think that this talk was important to hear if your a teen. You have to know about the risk that can come to you if you don't think. I don't take bad risk because those bad risk won't help me in anyway.]]> 2020-11-06 16:26:41 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898157640 nrodriguez219 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898158080 My overall reactions to this talk is that it really is relatable to how teens are nowadays. They just want to follow everybody else when it's really better to stand out and make a difference. The talk reassess my behaviors and choices because it was like in a way telling me I should continue being the way I am with the behaviors and choices I make. That like I should continue standing out to maybe even make a difference to other teens that they don't have to follow the crowd and take risks and even if they do take risks that they can change and stand out.]]> 2020-11-06 16:26:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898158080 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898172560 My overall reactions to this talk is that I'm kinda surprise to learn that she did this whole experiment, and got a lot of information about teenagers and the risk that they take. This doesn't really reassess your behaviors and choices, but it makes me think about getting use to something and doing it more.]]> 2020-11-06 16:30:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898172560 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898177633 I think the speaker is saying that teen follow behind what everybody else does and is being a follower. ]]> 2020-11-06 16:31:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898177633 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898180822 I believe she was trying to say that teens are more susceptible to making bad choices because their brains are still developing.]]> 2020-11-06 16:32:06 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898180822 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898191955 My overall reaction is that ]]> 2020-11-06 16:34:40 UTC https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898191955 https://padlet.com/jchunhealthed/2iius4y0n9z7ee68/wish/898203639 I think it was intelligently put-together, and it explains a lot about how most teens act.

This talk doesn't make me reassess my behaviors and choices because they aren't bad risks.
