Abstract

The treatment of adolescent suicidal behaviour should include three approaches; psychiatric treatment, social intervention and family therapy. Current investigation suggests that family problems are an important factor in adolescent suicide, along with poor parental relations, generalfamily conflicts, disorganised nuclear families and the inability to maintain relationships. We present the most frequent patterns of family problems and general principies to orient intervention.
