[Different perspectives of educational systems with a cross-cultural assessment].

In the framework of cross-cultural assessments, the nursing team is instructed by the family court judge to provide a clinical assessment taking into account the cultural dimension of the young person concerned. The aim is also to define appropriate psychoeducational support for certain migrant families, notably those describing a brutal confrontation between the educational worlds of here and elsewhere. The situation of a Togolese family, whose adolescent daughter is taken into care due to a practice judged to be abuse in France, is analysed in order to provide some keys to understanding and to discuss the anthropological aspects relevant to the educational and psychological care.
