The aim of this study was to survey the positive and negative points within the family relationship according to the opinion of drug addicted and non-drug addicted adolescents and to identify the plans they have for their future. 568 adolescents answered a self-filling questionnaire. The analysis of distribution of variables and chi-square test showed as positive points that the "family dynamics" were highlighted. Regarding to the negative points, among the addicted adolescents, the major issue was the "lack of dialogue" within the family. Regarding the main plans for the future, adolescents from both groups mentioned family and professional preparation and performance. This data presents significant information for the development of preventive strategies against the drug addiction during adolescence.Downloads
