Answer 2

Answer:

First of all, every child develops and matures on their own pace (within a certain range) and we can't compare one person to another. Secondly, in general, girls are reaching puberty earlier than they used to, which may stem from nutritional or environmental influences. For example, in 1900, the average age of puberty for girls was fifteen; today, it is twelve and a half. Moreover, attaining puberty or having a mature body doesn't result in a mature or fully developed brain. The brain continues to develops on its own pace from the rest of the body, until into adulthood to the age of twenty-five.
