Since the world is a world, children suffer persecution, offensive nicknames and are targets of malicious play, especially within schools. Currently, this type of behavior has gained a name, being defined as Bullying. But what is Bullying anyway?
The word bullying has an English origin and fits all types of physical or psychological aggression directed at an individual intentionally and repetitively, often becoming an act of persecution among the children involved.
In the past, the situation was seen as a simple “game” for children and that would be resolved over time. Nowadays it is seen as an embarrassing form and that can bring serious psychological problems and disorders generating trauma, especially in adulthood.
Research shows that children who suffer from bullying develop relationship problems , panic syndrome, low self-esteem and can generate aggressive disorders. When they are going through this experience they tend to isolate themselves, close themselves out of fear and often not even inform their parents about what happened.
Usually the facts occur with the presence or absence of teachers, managers or guardians who, instead of offering support to the victim, end up focusing on the aggressor for his bad behavior. The perpetrator deserves punishment and the victim’s attention and in many cases psychological counseling, if the event has been happening for a longer period.
A very important factor is that it should be analyzed even by parents, is that in addition to the child’s behavior changing, becoming more closed than usual, their school performance tends to fall. The desire to go to school and produce as he normally did and to relate to other friends disappears, excuses and even some lies may arise for not being sent to school or to appear in the same environment as the one who applies the bullying .
What Are the Types of Bullying?
Contrary to what many believe, bullying goes beyond nicknames and name calling . They occur through physical aggressions, aggressive and also prejudiced expressions that are directed at both girls and boys, regardless of age.
Boys when it comes to bullying are usually more aggressive and due to the habit of playing fights or with their hands, they end up taking this issue more seriously. Some children feel persecuted and because they do not accept this type of “game” they end up becoming the ” punching bag” for the laughter of others and they are not always able to ask for help from parents or guardians.
Nicknames, defamatory stories, cell phone messages and even publications on social networks known as cyberbulling are used as forms of provocation, chasing and exposing the child who has become the target.
Girls, on the other hand, tend to use more of the last devices mentioned, relying on modernity to reach their victim. Exposing compromising situations and in many cases even making up stories to embarrass and compromise the integrity of the other. They end up excluding them from the group, causing gossip and intrigue and even mocking in public.
Bullying occurs no matter the location, it can be at school, in the condominium that lives, in the group that walks and even within the family itself . It does not matter the location or who does it, but what it does and how it affects the child who suffers from this problem.
Thinking about it, justice determined that whoever abuses, excludes, defames, vulgarizes or everything that comes under the term bullying comes to indemnify the victim . In the case of a minor, parents or guardians are obliged to pay the indemnity.
