Description
Summary:Because borderline adolescents are fixated at a very early state of childhood, they have not sufficiently attained the essential capabilities for future growth & development.

It is based on a review of the literature on borderline adolescents & their families, practice experience, & the ecosystems, object relations, & structural family therapy theories. 24 References.
