This is most definitely the weirdest name for an EU-funded program that I’ve ever heard of:

The partnership will study the nature of family processes, including reciprocal socialisation, and the family as a system, the developmental construction of relationships, maturation of the adolescent and the maturation of the parents, socio-cultural, historical changes and the family life cycle.

Well that’s a mouthful, isn’t it? I really only mention it because it is, indeed, called “Bum Bum Adolescence is Here” and has the charming URL of bumbum.europole.org. If you ask me, the proximity of ‘bumbum’ to ‘euro-pole’ is problematic in itself.

I assume that ‘bum bum’ is supposed to reference a kind of two note flourish, as in ‘ta-da’ or something.
