"Adolescence is not a pathology, and we cannot treat it as if it were. A child who experiences his adolescence positively — however difficult it may be for the parents — it is a child with a future, with hope. I often worry about the current tendency to 'medicate' our children at an early age. It seems we want to solve all our children's problems with medication, or by controlling their lives to 'make the most of time,' and so our children's agendas become busier than that of a high-level executive. I stress again: Adolescence is not a pathology that we must combat. It's part of normal, natural growth in our children's lives.

"Where there is life there is movement, where there is movement there are changes, exploration, uncertainties, there is hope, there is joy, as well as anguish and misery."
