Teenagere: råd til forældre

This book is about young people and their transitions throughout their first year of high school, deepening our understanding of how it is to be young and enter new institutional settings, and how to understand the developmental dynamics of youth life. It explores the everyday life of six young people as they enter high school and follows them closely as they encounter and try to make sense of the different standards, values, and demands that are built into the institutional setting of high school. The chapters explore the entanglements of personal motive orientation, interpersonal dynamics, institutional values and demands, as well as societal standards, and how subtle negotiations of who one is and ought to be are interwoven into the fabrics of everyday life. Hence the book explores variations on an institutional level - as different high school environments - along with variations on an interpersonal level, insisting on a person-environment reciprocity in the study of development. Using cultural-historical activity theory and ecological psychology derived from theorists including Bang, Barker & Wright, Gibson, Lewin, Hedegaard, Ilyenkov, Stetsenko, and Vygotsky, Sofie Pedersen argues that developmental dynamics among young people cannot be reduced to individual nor social processes alone but are connected to institutional conditions and to concrete places. By insisting on a wholeness approach to the understanding of youth development, Pedersen reveals the developmental dynamics that unfold in the everyday lives of young people, and sheds new light on youth life dynamics, including the challenges that young people face.

How could a kid who was labeled a "low-IQ" student in early grade school with virtually no chance of academic success, let alone success in business, pull off a miracle? How did he find a way out of the deep, dark cavern of depression and underachievement to realize the success that most people only dream of? Men who have experienced physical, mental, and sexual abuse are figuratively put in a straitjacket that deters success. The emotional scars experienced by adult children of alcoholics, and the addictive allure of pornography mixed with abuse, create a deadly elixir that destroys lives.

"Did you ever stand by the shore of a placid lake or pond, in a calm, sunny day, and throw a little stone into its smooth, silvery waters? Did you observe how, first, a little ripple was formed around the place where it struck, and this was followed by a wave, and then, beyond, another, and another, till the whole surface of the water was disturbed? It was a very little thing that you did; and yet it agitated a great body of water. So it is with childhood and youth; the most insignificant action you perform, in its influence upon your character, will reach through the whole period of your existence."The two books in this volume deal with many topics that concern today's children-and parents. Just looking at the table of contents draws one's eye to chapters dealing with subjects like these: treatment of brothers and sisters; behavior at school; on finishing what is begun. Whether this book is given to a child to read alone or read aloud in the family, it will be life-changing.

Par sa pédagogie exceptionnelle, le Logis méritait qu'on lui consacre un livre. Le Logis, c'est d'abord l'aventure d'un foyer pour adolescents fondé en 1955 dans la région d'Annecy. L'auteure fut pensionnaire de 1980 à 1986, après des histoires de fugue et d'errance, qui l'ont conduit à 15 ans, de l'hôpital psychiatrique au Logis. Elle présente le projet éducatif, analyse les rouages institutionnels, décortique le travail des éducateurs dans la reconstruction difficile des pensionnaires au travers des multiples activités de formation ou de loisirs. Elle nous fait découvrir cet incroyable groupe des Snyüles, groupe folklorique qui parcourt l'Europe comme ambassadeurs de la Savoie ou l'accueil des artistes dans le foyer de Léo Ferré à Jacques Higelin, du ballet national de Monte-Carlo au théâtre de la Criée avec Marcel Maréchal... Enfin, elle donne la parole à celles et ceux qui y ont vécu durant cette période: ex-pensionnaires, éducateurs, bénévoles, musiciens et artistes, afin de mieux nous faire comprendre ce qui faisait l'âme du Logis.Ce livre raconte une histoire humaine et une somme d'engagements hors-norme, mis au service de jeunes en situation de rupture familiale ou en danger. Les 44 témoignages et interviews recueillis par l'auteure sont autant de points de vue sur Le Logis. Nous pouvons ainsi mesurer qu'au-delà de la souffrance à vivre leur placement éducatif, les garçons et les filles ont bénéficié d'une prise en charge et d'une attention remarquables, tout en vivant des moments douloureux, mais aussi, souvent extraordinaires. Ce récit porte un regard de l'intérieur sur cette expérience-choc, portée par la volonté de son directeur pendant plus de 30 ans, Pierre Lavy et par l'engagement de son équipe éducative dans une lutte acharnée pour que les jeunes du Logis puissent se reconstruire et se réinsérer dans cette société des années 80.Préface de Maurice Cusson, criminologue et sociologue, professeur émérite à l'Université de Montréal. Il est l'auteur de nombreux ouvrages dont le dernier est paru en 2015, sous le titre Les Homicides. Criminologie historique de la violence et de la non-violence paru aux Éditions Hurtubise HMH. Il a été récompensé par le prestigieux prix Beaumont-Tocqueville de l'Association internationale des criminologues de langue française (AICLF) en 2010 pour l'ensemble de sa carrière.

David Crabb's journey through adolescence captures the essence of every person's struggle to understand his or her true self.
