¿Por qué los adolescentes no querrían crecer? Con esta interrogante la destacada psicóloga Pilar Sordo abre un debate cuyas respuestas deben ser buscadas por los adultos a partir de la reflexión sobre el tipo de testimonio que estamos siendo para nuestros hijos. No quiero crecer es una invitación a cuestionarnos sobre cómo los padres estamos manejando el crecimiento de nuestros hijos en un contexto donde tratamos de tenerles todo lo que necesitan, que no es lo que ellos de verdad nos están pidiendo: más afecto, caricias, límites, un mundo más seguro por el cual transitar. Este libro recorre a lo largo de la vida de los jóvenes ?desde los nueve hasta los treinta años? observando los conflictos principales de cada una de estas etapas, los desafíos que hoy día estas fases traen incorporadas y hacia dónde los padres tienen que apuntar los sueños de sus hijos para que ellos se puedan desarrollar en plenitud. Esa es nuestra gran responsabilidad como adultos: transformar la vida de los niños y dejarlos siendo buenas personas para cuando nosotros ya no estemos.
