- Abstract
- Young gays commit suicide because of teasing at school; teenage girls (and sometimes their mothers) diet themselves to death; one in three marriages ends in divorce; estranged partners murder their children rather than let their ex-partner have custody; adults in positions of care and responsibility sexually abuse children; deadly diseases are spread through sexual contact. Sexuality, though it is depicted endlessly in the media with ‘no holds barred’, is still a very difficult issue for our society. How do young people cope?
