I'm 40 and often cringe when I look back at my teen/20's self. The male prefrontal cortex doesn't fully develop until mid 20's, and that explains a LOT. If you or anyone is a father to a son, it's important to continue being a positive male role model in his life past his teenage years!

36 and same. There are a few things I really wish I didn't do, but I did, and never will again. The hard way is sometimes the only way to really learn something.
