[Changes in adolescence and changes in care].

Adolescence is a period renowned for giving rise to changes, the outcome of which is unknown or uncertain. It is necessary to take into account the malaise, resulting from a problem of intersubjectivity and social bonds. Excesses of individualism as a response to the weakness of the being are conveyed by risk-taking behaviour. Caregivers must stay on course, not be discouraged and favour creative approaches, either individually or in a team.
