Friendship and leisure, teenage children of immigration

Abstract

Teenagers children of immigration understand friendship as a system of relations. Friendship, which they consider true friendship, means for them to engage in long-term relationships based on trust, intimacy, communication, affection and mutual understanding. Teenagers differ from the locals on the value given to free time and leisure, as well as the type of activities in which take up these moments which is a good indicator of the different socializations of these groups. Only the establishment of a communication supported in the field of friendship relations within the peer groups allows the approximation of teenagers in leisure time (also its organization and consumption), the status of citizens.
