Quick Write:
In my opinion I believe that teenagers should be treated as young adults , I also believe that some teenagers are mature enough, some may even have children of their own , we are still developing as a teen (young adult). Although we may have a harder time to make rational decisions no excuse is an excuse.

My I-Search Project
Final Reflection:
As a scholar in completing this project. I learned that there were plenty of informational things that I didn't already know previous to my I search , I learned that one question can go a long way and how not to be afraid to ask because there's plenty people in this world that may have the same questions. As I explored my topic for research the most difficult thing i had to do as interview my best friend , going into the interview I didn't know how she would feel about the questions I had for her. But being able to have her open up to me was one of the most memorable things I've done in this project. As of right now I feel like I've achieved a lot while doing this project , I learned so many things and if I can I'll do it all over again.

Quick Write:
Some people may not fully agree with the idea of metal detectors in school but, tragically there have been too many school shootings to count in recent years. I believe that society give children these crazy ideas because of what is allowed in schools, to be allowed in schools without medal detectors or school ID's is absolutely absurd and unsafe.
Daniel R. Weinberger states that the brain of a 15 year old is not mature. Particularly in an area called the prefrontal cortex, which is critical to good judgement and suppression of impulse. He continues to say the shooter at Santana High , like other adolescents, needed people or institutions to prevent him from being in a potentially deadly situation where his immature brain was left to its own devices. No matter what, if a gun is put in the control of the prefrontal cortex of a hurt and vengeful 15 year old, and is pointed at a human target, it will very likely go off. His claim was that teenagers are to young to know any better or to think before doing , I however disagree with his claim I do believe that it may be harder for an adolescent to control their impulses then it is for adults but for a adolescent to cause a shooting in a shoot would have to be thought out or planned.
