What Do Teenagers Want? What Do Teenagers Need?
Strom, Kimberly; And Others
Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal, v12 n5 p345-59 Oct 1995
Reports on the qualitative findings extracted from a study of over 3,700 teenagers from urban, suburban, and small city settings, describing the array of difficulties teenagers face today. The themes that emerged from the students' comments offer a compelling portrait of life as a teenager in the 1990s and help shape an agenda for understanding and responding to these myriad needs.
