“In a fascinating treatise on teenage behavior in Brandeis magazine, former Psychology Today editor in chief Robert Epstein, PhD, wrote that “there is overwhelming evidence from multiple fields that adolescence is caused by cultural practices, not the brain. These practices do two things to young people well past puberty: infantilize them—that is, control and restrict them as if they were still children—and isolate them from responsible adults, trapping them in the inane world of teen culture.”
