Teenagers who do not like their parents.

Abstract

Starting from a reference to the literary figure of Don Juan, the relational bases in the family of origin of the parental-filial disagreement that generates situations as frequent as worrisome are described. The coincidence of a harmonious conjugality and a primarily impaired parentality underlies deprivations, which, when translated into a pattern of rejection, disqualification and hyperprotection, facilitate the development that reflects the title of this article. Such is also the relational substrate of future borderline personality disorders.
