the teens

Abstract

The article is part of an investigation on the topic of adolescence in the 21st century and the particular characteristics of young people in the city of El Alto-La Paz. The title of plural teens establishes a commitment to highlight that there is a diversity of ways of living adolescence and a plurality of adolescents, each with their experience and their particular history, looking for and finding possible exits, the same ones that are authorized from the subjective singularity of each one. talking about teens implies, taking into account the absence of a universal adolescent model, the absence of adults with "word" as referents, knowing that there is no psychic determinism in the outcome of a teenager, nor the autonomous triumph of a will to In this way, adolescents have to invent themselves, face obstacles, because they live without place in society for them, they are invisible to the eyes of adults and the community.
