Summary "Although significant attention has been devoted to adult perpetrators and vicums of stalking, there is persuasive evidence that stalking can begin at a much younger age. Stalking in Children and Adolescents: The Primitive Bond offers mental health professionals and attorneys a review of current research on stalking and related forms of obsessional harassment as well as recommendations for assessment and treatment of young stalking victims and perpetrators." "The author, both a psychologist and an attorney, also explores related forms of obsessional harassment such as bullying, sexual harassment, and dating violence. He provides a psychodynamic conceptualization of stalking with a particular emphasis on developmental issues related to attachment, identity formation, and emotional states involving jealousy, envy, and anger. Practical recommendations for managing stalking cases, implementing policy, and maintaining personal safety make this an invaluable resource for mental health professionals, parents, and school officials."--Jacket.
