Can the bone age determine how intelligent your child is?

Exercise your mind and utilize common sense. Also, as you age you tend to act more than react, so possibly that's a sign of maturity. But without effort, you don't "grow" smarter.

Yes and No. Yes if the person has the desire to accumulate wisdom and knowledge. This person probably would have sarted with a good head on thier shoulders. BUT, on the other hand, I am afraid on have known a few elders whom I regard no more intellectually aware then an average teenager. Unless you consider the ability to qoute sport stats and Judge Judy as intelligent.

Yes and no. Most people tend to mature as they grow older but some people just start being mature early on. Still, some start out mature but grow up immature. It depends on the person and their environment.

I definitely don't have all the brain cells that I used to have due to aging. I can really feel the difference. Still I finished a second masters degree this past summer with a final GPA of 3.94. So I guess I still have a few brain cells yet.
As for being mature, check out my picture.

GENERALLY, BUT NOT NECESSARILY, AGE IS DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL TO MATURITY AND INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL TO INTELLIGENCE OF A PERSON
