White Matter Growth
As brains mature, the white matter in the cerebrum grows. Watch the very short (6 second) video here:

This shows brain development from about 5 years of age through about 20 years of age. It comes from MRI images. We can see, based on this video, that the amount of gray matter diminishes and the amount of white matter grows throughout development.
Discuss this growth and what it means. Also, if brains are still developing at 20 years of age, discuss your feelings on teenage behavior and choice-making. Are teen brains fully developed?
