It might be said that adolescence as a process occurs because of a
conflict of expectation between developing individuals and the
society in which they live. Its onset can be defined by arrival of
puberty but its termination is much harder to objectively define.
This is a book that seeks to help those going through the process
of mid-adolescence either from the point of view of the adolescent
or their families. It attends to the serious strains that may have
to be borne if the picture portrayed is to have any realism.
Examined are many of the issues that adolescents may face
including: their emotional and intellectual development; variation
in physiological development and what this can mean to them; the
importance of the peer group; the emergence of disturbed mental
behavior; the frequency of eating disorders; self-harming; and
suicide.The You and Your Child Series is aimed especially at
parents but this book will also appeal to adolescents and those
working with this group.
