Why are adolescents so prone to mood swings?

I really would like to know
Answer:
HORMONES with a capital H!
I think it is hormones. Their body is maturing and their hormone levels are changing by the minute.

It seems to me I noticed some of the same things in my wife as she endured menopause; specifically mood swings and irrational or illogical reasoning.
Fluctuating hormones.
Their frontal cortex is not yet fully developed.
It probably has alot to do with hormones during puberty. Also the teenage years are a very stressful time. Teenagers are usually not as well-equipped as mature adults to deal with stress.
