RECOBRAR EL VÍNCULO FAMILIAREL FAMILIAR Para muchos niños de hoy en día, sus padres son figuras poco conectadas con su mundo y su realidad, y los valores que ellos les inculcan pierden cada vez más

NEUFELD, GORDON, DR.; MATÉ, GABOR, DR.Un psicólogo y un médico unen fuerzas para hacer frente a una de las tendencias más preocupantes y más insidiosas de nuestra época: el hecho de que los amigos sustituyan a los padres en las vidas de nuestros hijos. El Dr. Neufeld ha denominado a este fenomeno "orientacion hacia los iguales". Se refiere a la inclinacion de los niños y de los jovenes a recurrir a sus compañeros para ser orientados: para saber que esta bien y que esta mal, para definir sus valores, identidad y codigos de conducta. La orientacion hacia los iguales socava la cohesion de la familia, sabotea el sano desarrollo del niño, envenena la atmosfera escolar y fomenta una cultura agresiva, hostil y sexualizada entre los jovenes. Regreso al vinculo familiar contribuye a que los padres entiendan este perturbador fenomeno y proporciona soluciones para devolver al vinculo natural hijo-padres su debida preeminencia. Los conceptos, principios y consejos practicos contenidos en regreso al vinculo familiar llevara de vuelta a los padres a su natural papel: ser la verdadera fuente de contacto, refugio, seguridad y cariño de sus hijos.
