Osvaldo Poli – L’adolescenza non è una malattia

Venue: Teatro Toselli Among the themes he most frequently addresses are: educational firmness, knowledge of one’s weak points of character, emotional immaturity, education in gratitude, the duties of children towards their parents, the positive aspects of adolescence, the need for masculine education, the effects of the lack of a paternal educational vision in the upbringing of children. Osvaldo Poli, psychologist and author, mainly deals with counselling and training for parents and couples. Adolescence is not a disease that must bring with it guilt, shouting, suffering for parents and children, but a splendid season of life in which young people can mature and learn no longer to be conditioned by their character. It is a season that requires a rapid update of parental software; the moment to break the protective bubble in which one would like to make children live. Being the parent of an adolescent means accepting the impossibility of sparing young people the effort of growing up and telling them: “I will not spare you difficulties, but I will help you solve them”.
