January 23, 2012

Comment: The Moldovan article reports about the statistics of the Ministry of Internal Affairs’ which show that the bullying in schools can often lead to children becoming vulnerable and even suicidal, leading this year to 46 attempted suicides among children, 18 of which resulted in death. In order to prevent any form of aggression among pupils, the educational institutions from all over the country organized classes, explaining the children what juvenile crime is and how to avoid becoming victims of aggression. Beyond this however children would also need conflict resolution skills to be able to manage their conflicts in a different way, rather than through aggression or abuse.
