Your Teenager’s First Heartbreak Is Not Drama. The Pain Is Neurologically Identical to Physical Injury.
When your teenager says heartbreak feels like physical pain, they are not exaggerating. Brain scans show that social rejection activates the same neural pathways as a physical injury. What parents call drama, neuroscience calls a genuine physiological event.

I need some neuroscience help. Anybody have a reliable source for how long a kid can plan ahead by age?

For example, an average 10-year-old can plan ahead by 1-3 days. I found a stat similar to this, but the source wasn’t good.

Thanks in advance!
