For reasons often multiple, it can happen that the adolescent finds himself/herself hospitalised in an asylum. Ever since Pinel, the asylum strives if not towards curing at least towards resocialization. This resocialization is carried out in a very particular way: Desire Orthopaedics. Such orthopaedics is responsible for chronification and only through a listening process could it be curative.
