This writing is part of some academic refl ections that the authors have been making about the different avatars that can occur in the psychic constitution of adolescent subjects. This article is an initial proposal of how to understand the time evolution of the adolescent encounter with the implications of their sexuality, their body, their language and the different waivers they must live with for entering the social bond. Finally, this signifi cant moment of adolescence is articulated with the entrance to the culture and the implications it has towards the encounters and/or dis-encounters with the law.
