Could someone please define this word "immature" for me? I see it used all
the time and have heard teachers use it as the main reason to retain, but it
seems to me to be a pretty illusive term and often based on subjectivity.
Sometimes it even has to do with physical characteristics.
I agree with Elisa about the difference in boys. I am a mother of girls.
Now I have a grandson. Before, I would have thought many of the boys in my
classes over the years "immature," but now I just see the way they act as "boy
behavior." Does the fact that they don't sit quietly and aim to please like
many girls mean they are immature?
