Why are teenagers fascinated by power? Why are they enchanted by unlawful violence, as in bullying? How could we deconstruct this fatal dichotomy that feeds and is fed by the enjoyment of evil? How could the worship of superheroes and the chivalry they embody, as it already exists in the souls of children and teenagers, frame and transcend this double temptation? How much do adults, educators, and parents, utilize this valuable pedagogical potential? A groundbreaking proposal with answers to the above questions, directly applicable in the classroom and at home.

Read an excerpt

The adolescent perception of the world and my place within it is full of holes. Even the most absolute certainties of yesterday, precious patches, rarely remain intact until tomorrow… However, human existence is governed by realities but is based on certainties about what is true, good, desirable, lovable, achievable – and their opposites. In adolescence, these vital certainties are not givens but questions to be answered. With the additional peculiarity that the adolescent's world is not founded on abstract concepts but on stories, narratives, great fantasies – either visible or hidden. And with the further particularity that every answer holds the status of a temporarily absolute truth: from the music we listen to, to the clothes we wear, and the gadgets we chase… which are often discarded within at most three months.
