Ryder draws on intimate interviews to show how teenage girls navigate experiences of abuse, emotional loss, and parental abandonment, revealing how their violent acts become a means of connecting with others—however maladaptive and misplaced those connections may be. Her work suggests viable strategies for early intervention to keep at-risk young women out of the criminal justice system UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781626373518 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781626373518 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781626373518/original ER -
