[b]i would determine this on the fact that as we grow we observe more and as such our comprehension and knowledge of things is higher, i know for a fact that i understand way more when learning new things than i did when i was a kid and as such my learning and understanding is excelarated.
i teach martial arts for a living and i can guarantee you that as an adult you will understand more of what you learn compared to when you were young but in saying that when it comes to physical exercises a child will be able to demostrate easier as its more monkey see monkey do and an adult has to overcome the fact that they understand what to do but cant demonstrate as they mentally take in the exercise before they just try it.
mental comprehension because of this will determine how thoroughly you will think things through and make more rational decissions. look at extreme sports like skate boarding and moto cross, the competitors are getting younger and younger due to the fact that their inhabitions and rational thoughts are less but ill hazard a guess that the injuries in the sport due to this are alot higher.
this theory is not an assumption, it has proven to me over the last 12 years of teaching and the issues involved in teaching a child versus teaching an adult
