PARENTS
Are you afraid your child doesn't care about anything?
DON'T WORRY!
It is just a phase every middle school child goes through and it is because of The Brain.
There is a reason your child is not thinking ahead... It's because White Matter!
What is white matter?
White matter is composed of bundles of myelinated nerve cell processes , which connect various grey matter areas of the brain to each other.
Why does white matter, matter?
White matter is responsible in cognitive, behavioral, emotional and motor development during childhood and adolescence
What does it do?
You could refer to it as the subway of the brain – connecting different regions of grey matter in the cerebrum to one another.
Meanwhile, the white insulating coat of myelin on the axons that carry signals between nerve cells continues to accumulate, gradually improving the precision and efficiency of neuronal communication — a process not completed until the early 20s.

Thicker myelin sheathes, increased axonal diameter and improved organization of white matter tracts can improve signal transduction, and may be critical factors in allowing cognitive, behavioral, and emotional development to take place in an optimal fashion.
