V. Ovcharova, Yu. A. Degtyareva). Results: an analysis of the causes of child abuse in formally prosperous families made it possible to identify and describe the conditions for the primary prevention of child abuse: creating self-help family groups "Anonymous parents of difficult adolescents" (ARTP) and transforming the reality of everyday interaction between adolescents and their parents through development work with the teenagers themselves.
