Apr 03, 2020 08:35 AMTeen-aged males, unless too exhausted to move, are loose cannons. It's in our hormonal wiring. That's why all those coming-of-age rituals, probably Neolithic to now. Parents just hope their boys don't self-destruct and their girls don't get pregnant before their brains are developed enough to think ahead and judge consequences. That's why we remind them, ground them and nag them!
