Description
ABSTRACT This paper discusses an approach to interacting with adolescents in a way that invites their active participation in the activities and rules that affect their lives as they journey into young adulthood. It presents a concept of building alliances with teens instead of imposing regulations upon them that are unilaterally defined by adults in authority, so that they become an integral part of the results and consequences of their behavior. It emphasizes the deployment of the old concept of habituation, used by Aristotle, who believed that the forming of "habits" was an important part of adolescent development.
