This book is based on the idea that increasing juvenile risk
behaviours - like substance abuse, nonsuicidal self-injury, and
antisocial or suicidal behaviour - allow adolescents to fulfill
developmental tasks like identity-formation and regulation of
self-worth. Narcissistic self-exploitation, mobility tasks,
flexibility and the challenges of new media exert social pressure
on parental figures, distracting and putting strain on their mental
resources, which in turn changes and even destroys the emotional
dialogue with their offspring. If children themselves experience
neglect and lack of emotional bonding - resulting in a lack of
self-regulating capacities - risk behaviours are the consequence.
The book combines different views in the psychological, social and
metatheoretical domains. It consists of three parts: developmental
problems of young people, diagnosis of risk behaviours in the
nosological framework, and presentation of new morbidity with an
increase in symptom prevalence. The book also discusses the threat
of the acceleration of social processes and the risks of postmodern
society.
