Popis: | Although several authors have addressed the matter of how children are affected when an adult caretaker has AIDS, most have focused on younger children, ages 3 to 10, rather than on adolescents. Even fewer authors have addressed the specific ways in which adolescents of different ethnic and socioeconomic groups respond to having a parent who is HIV-positive, or has developed full-blown AIDS. This case study examines the various therapeutic strategies used in working with the family of an adolescent Hispanic male street gang member whose mother was HIV positive, and whose father had already developed AIDS. |
