Stalking in Adolescence: A Case Report
Abstract
Stalking has overlaps with criminal justice system and mental health services. Research has, so far, identified stalking to be a predominantly adult male phenomenon. We present the case of a 15-year-old girl who was referred for stalking her learning mentor. The relevant literature is discussed and areas for further research are highlighted.
Keywords: Stalking; adolescence; mental illness.
