But for the more than 10 million single women in the U.S. with children at home, dating is a much more complicated matter.

L'audiolibro presenta terribili testimonianze di vita, direttamente raccolte nelle carceri, nelle comunità di recupero, per le strade, da giovani violenti. Contro la frequente e comune rimozione sociale che accompagna il proliferare dei comportamenti giovanili violenti, criminali, devianti, Paolo Crepet tenta di comprendere, e far comprendere, da dove traggano origine tali condotte e, al di là del contesto degradato, suggerisce quanto anche il decadimento delle nostre relazioni affettive e l'indisponibilità all'ascolto possano influire sulla diffusione della criminalità tra i giovani.

At first glance, Generation Z (youth born after 1997) seems to be made up of anxious overachievers, hounded by Tiger Moms and constantly tracked on social media.

Counterintuitively, anthropologist Shalini Shankar argues that Gen Z spelling bee competitors are learning crucial 21st-century skills from their high-powered lives, displaying a sophisticated understanding of self-promotion, self-direction, and social mobility.
