What happens in brain development after the peak of synaptic density about age 3?
◦ The frequently used connections become faster and more efficient and underused connections wither away.
◦ Most of the connections become faster and more efficient leading to the production of more connections.
◦ About 75 percent of the synapses in the frontal cortex wither away because they are no longer used.
◦ After the peak at 3, the growth rate of synapses is largely dependent on how much parents talk to their children.
