""It's better to talk to you than to my parents; I wouldn't want to hurt their feelings."" ""Anguish, when it takes hold of me, is a terrible abyss!"" ""I don't know who I am anymore. It's like voices are talking to me, it's strange; I'm afraid""... Today, teenagers dare to consult on their own. We welcome the end of the taboo, and the fact that it's easier to speak out, but beware of the dizzying confusion that can turn a teenager's life upside down. A challenge, a bad encounter, an emotional break-up... and it can be a catastrophe of a perdition.

The precipitous and uncertain evolution of society, the family, the relationship to work and culture, upsets the reference points of both teenagers and parents. The result is often a sense of unease that can even go as far as incommunicability.

Adolescence is therefore a crucial time to talk: it's the most important time to talk. Thierry Delcourt guides us and suggests concrete situations to help parents and teenagers find their way towards greater well-being and dialogue. Let's not forget that the teenage period is rich in creative potential, which needs to be revealed. The book is aimed at teens and parents alike. It can even be read together, as a way of talking and hearing each other differently.
