I remember me when I was a teenager: I was a dumbass. Everybody I knew from school? Also some sort of dumbass. I was slightly less of a dumbass at 18, but still definitely a dumbass. I think that number just gets settled on because it's the legal age where you are considered an adult (though by actual biological standards, your brain doesn't even finish developing until 7 years later). Is it stupid? You bet! That's probably the main reason for it though. More likely than not, you'll look back at your teenage years 20-30 years later (or sooner) and realize how foolish you were. Wisdom usually comes with age (though not always).
