The fact that peer groups of various ilk's exert a consistent, but not
necessarily  uni-dimensional or even predictable in any direction on
adolescent development suggests that the  seminal events in one's life may
be chaotic, in the sense that the physicists use the word.

If thesis the case, the task is to isolate these periods which are "highly
sensitive to initial conditions" because they provide the maximal amount of
access for change-and development of autonomy.
