- Synopsis
- No one doubts that treatment of juvenile delinquents is far more likely to be successful if the parents are included in the treatment process. However, little has been written about the psychological dynamics of these adults or about the techniques of treating them. It has frequently been noted that the parents of delinquents have strong resistance to becoming involved in agency contact, and that they often carry a heavy emotional burden because of their own inner conflicts, their sense of failure, and the overwhelming economic and social problems with which many are confronted. It is our belief that part of the difficulty that social workers and psychiatrists have encountered in working with parents of delinquents is related to the type of pathology these individuals present.
