It controls reasoning and impulse control. In teens it is still developing. That is why children have a hard time seeing reason, and teens begin to question things. They are beginning to learn to reason and figure things out. Sometimes you may even hear a teen say "that's right, mom" which is a real shocker for any parent!
It also helps to control impulses. As a teens brains are developing you can see that they begin to control their impulses better as well.

The Frontal lobes have been found to play a part in impulse control, judgment, language, memory, motor function, problem solving, sexual behavior, socialization and spontaneity.
The Frontal lobes assist in planning, coordinating, controlling and executing behavior.
People that have damaged frontal lobes may experience problems with these aspects of cognitive function, being at times impulsive; impaired in their ability to plan and execute complex sequences of actions; perhaps persisting with one course of action or pattern of behavior when a change would be appropriate.
