The objective of this work is to do a critical analysis over the behavior of adolescents that belong to an internationally known religious group named The Watchtower Society. A report of the performance of this group was drawn from the origins, from its foundation to the current days. Their main doctrines and influences and how these determine their followers to be. After a brief definition of adolescent, their conflicts and challenges in this complicated period of the human existence, through the study of reports, testimonies, articles and Watchtower s literatures, a reflection was made over the adolescent's modus vivendi and the tensions which they go through and are constantly submitted, to guarantee that in everything they are faithful and prove their loyalty to the organization. When insubordination, questioning or confrontation happens, the disassociated adolescent suffers many profound and significant losses. For that reason, this work offers practical alternatives and solutions that aid to attend the recently disassociated in order to help in its social re-insertion.
