LE BRETON, David. Anthropologie des conduites a risque et scarifications a l’adolescence. []. , 59, 2, pp.120-131. ISSN 1809-5267.

Adolescent risk taking behaviors or scarifications are signs of active resistance against suffering that impregnate their life. They are paradoxical remedies that allows them to get of the distress they felt. Of course, sometimes it is necessary to begin again till circumstances that provoke suffering are always here. They are acts of passage, mean for crossing and conjure the flood of suffering.
