i don't really count supernatural reasons towards being old

i mean edward cullen is suppose to be hundreds of years old but he's still going to high school... just because he was alive all those years doesn't mean the gained mature and experience that comes with age are there.

[(Anonymous)]

...I just realized how depressing it is that Edward is going to high school.

[(Anonymous)]

I've had nightmares before about having to go back to high school due to some sort of stupid error.

How does a vampire do it??

[(Anonymous)]

Did he have to be in high school? I never read/saw Twilight, so I don't know if there's any explanation for why he's in high school and not identifying as a young-looking adult and doing something else. I assumed he just wanted to go to high school for shits and giggles, which is kinda weird.

[sockes]

I *think* he also attended college a couple of times? I haven't read the books, but I got the impression that the Cullens would move to a new place, enroll the "kids" in school at the youngest age they thought they could get away with, and then move away once they'd reached the point where their not aging would become obvious.

[(Anonymous)]

I get moving around, it just seems odd to be like "Okay, you get to go to high school and take trigonometry for the tenth time."

[(Anonymous)]

Apparently, high school is just the best place to troll for hot, codependent chicks.

[sarillia]

To be fair, his brain is stuck at the biological age of 17. Brains still have some developing to do at that age which will never happen in his case.

[(Anonymous)]

wouldn't that be true of all non-aging characters? brains continue developing your whole life. so it could get stopped physically at any age.

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, but there are other aspects of brain development, IIRC especially the frontal lobe, that "finish" developing to maturity around age 25. That's not to say the brain doesn't keep developing in other, less obvious, ways all your life, but it's not quite the same and it's not quite as rigidly limited as pre-25 brain development. 17 year olds CANNOT, physically, have brains as well developed as a 25 year old (barring developmental delays and disabilities that is). That's not to say a 17 year old's behavior and intelligence can't be more advanced and mature than a 25 year olds in some cases, but their brains are still incomplete in a way 25 year olds' brains aren't, barring disabilities.

[sarillia]

I don't know. I would think at least a few immortal characters would keep developing in some way. Their hair still grows and things like that sometimes. I was just thinking about how Stephenie Meyer is very particular about how her vampires are completely biologically frozen.

What you're saying makes sense though.

[(Anonymous)]

Wait, so how do they make memories, then? If their brains don't develop because they are biologically frozen, then the hippocampus also wouldn't be able to develop further (it needs to regularly create new neurons) to form memories. Wouldn't they be like people with Alzheimer's then? (Not that I expect you to actually know the answer, but this is now really bothering me.)
