[Family communication and primary prevention].
A good communication within the family is the basis for the primary prevention of discomfort and deviance. With the aim of prevention of the frequent acts of violence within the family, the present article responds to the request of behavioural guidelines in schools, families, communities, and other pedagogical settings. Thus, the delicate issue of self-esteem in adolescents, the dysfunctional parental behaviour and the symptoms of discomfort of the teenagers are discussed. Besides the behavioural strategies for parents, the hot topic of alcohol abuse, which is cause of a significant number of car accidents, is briefly mentioned.
