Answer 1

B) Immature

Step-by-step explanation:

The original meaning of the word "juvenile" is "young" or "childish", just a term to describe a youngster... in this context, its meaning would be "immature" because if you understand where it is derived from, children are often immature (not speaking for all of them)

So your answer is B
