Growing Up Positive: Stories from a Generation of Young People Affected by AIDS (AIDS Awareness S.) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This is a collection of stories about the real experiences of young people and their families, and how they have grown up having to face the realities of AIDS. The stories - from places including Uganda, South Africa, Birmingham, Edrinburgh and London - reflect the many issues affecting today's young people: drug use, prison, suicide, running away from home, coming to terms with sexuality, physical abuse, and seeking poilitical assylum. From a dozen interviews with young people affected by AIDS, and with the counsellors, priests, youth workers and parents who work with them, this book reveals the broader picture of how young people see AIDS and HIV, how it has impacted on their lives, and how it has affected their ideas and futures.
