Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] In order to put "in parenthesis" the studies that conventionally deal with adolescence, the article proposes a pedagogical look at the phenomenon, careful to highlight not so much the missing aspects or the critical points, as the growth resources linked to the anthropological and motivational principle of the will to meaning. It is a matter of encouraging the assumption of an educational point of view that looks at the "healthy" part of the young: that reserve of potentialities - often invisible - which are based on the constitutive human tension between being and having to be, and which only one an authentically pedagogical look can intercept, thus overcoming a stereotypical image of the adolescent.
