abstract="We studied the evolution of a judiciary record among abused and delinquent adolescents in a population of 252 boys placed during the period 1950-1977 in a supervised center in the Paris area. During late childhood or early adolescence 33 of these boys were abused by their families of within institutional environments. The subsequent history of the first 22 demonstrates a more frequent recurrence of delinquency during adulthood. The rate of recidivism is twice that for the other adolescents in the study population. There are at least two possible explanations: firstly, starting at adolescence, these subjects exhibited more aggressive behavior and there are problems created by the intolerance of this behavior; secondly, the premature interruption of bonds contracted with the team of educators is a barrier to necessary care that engenders difficulties in the psycho-and socio-therapeutic management of these boys.<p /><p>Language: fr</p>",
