[QUOTE="moonglow, post: 392995, member: 256"] Now that sounds interesting. I will have my mom's husband ask them about that when he takes Kenny in for his appointment Friday. I am sure though Kenny will refuse saying he hates shots or something though. How did they make it so your mother in law's goddaughter had to do this whether she wanted too or not? She drank and did drugs. The doctors seem to think most of the damage was due to the drugs though. The frontal lobe area. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_lobe[/url] The executive functions of the frontal lobes involve the ability to recognize future consequences resulting from current actions, to choose between good and bad actions (or better and best), override and suppress unacceptable social responses, and determine similarities and differences between things or events. Therefore, it is involved in higher mental functions. The frontal lobes also play an important part in retaining longer term memories which are not task-based. These are often memories associated with emotions derived from input from the brain's limbic system. The frontal lobe modifies those emotions to generally fit socially acceptable norms. ************************************* Well no wonder his judgment is so bad. :( My sister right now is having nothing to do with him.
