Juvenile discomfort is the premise for the possible evolution towards deviance, criminality and towards mental distress and today it is closely linked to the numerous changes that derive from the modification of the social culture in our historical moment; this modification in fact destabilizes the adult population and even more so minors and young people, who are still building their personality structure. It is therefore important to study in depth, with the multidisciplinary tools of Criminology, the influencing factors that derive from the numerous family and social dynamics that are conditioning the growth of young people.

Keywords: Juvenile discomfort, family breakdown, family violence, cultural conflict, unaccompanied foreign minors, mental distress.
