The article reports a research on how the subjective constitution of children and adolescents who live on the streets, known as street kids, relate to the social ties, based on the specific psychoanalical hearing of children and adolescents. A process of social disqualification and depreciation of these children's families, conducts them to break up with their families and schools, leading them to the streets. This rupture brings the social address about, which substitutes the parents address, from which they could take the meaning of their filiation and sexuality. This rupture also deprives them of the condition of being children and adolescents, justifying the abandonment, the neglect and the fear and offering them the only possibility of an identity as a delinquent.Downloads
