Il lavoro si propone di analizzare, anche in termini affettivi, in che modo il web e la sua offerta contribuiscono alla crescita degli adolescenti. 91 ragazzi della scuola superiore hanno partecipato alla ricerca che ha affiancato a intervista e questionario, tipicamente utilizzati in questo campo, alcuni stimoli di carattere proiettivo. I giovani non sembrano affatto intrappolati nella rete, piuttosto la sfruttano come opportunità per scoprire i modi della comunicazione, sperimentare le forme della relazione e conoscere la propria vita affettiva. In particolare, il gruppo dei pari, la realtà familiare e i ricordi infantili, vissuti in termini social, sono connotati da affetti positivi, mentre la vita di coppia in versione social viene investita da sentimenti ambivalenti. Gli adolescenti compongono vita familiare e pratiche digitali, auspicando una compartecipazione di tutte le relazioni significative, a cominciare da quelle vissute in casa. Essi non sono del tutto immuni dalla tentazione della dipendenza social, ma sembra che siano soprattutto le ragazze a subire le tentazioni dell’online: pur mostrandosi più timide tendono ad affidare alla rete forti ansie di controllo.;
