ROUGH GUY... OR REALLY HARD

Bullying is an English word meaning abusive. This is a current word due to the innumerable cases of persecution and aggression that are being detected in schools and colleges, and that are leading many school children to live truly terrifying situations.

Bullying refers to all forms of aggressive, intentional and repeated attitudes, which occur without obvious motivation, adopted by one or more students against another or others.

The one who exercises bullying does so to impose his power on the other, through constant threats, insults, aggressions, humiliations, and thus have him under his complete dominion over months and even years. Intimidating abuse will make the victim feel pain, anguish, fear, to such an extent that, in some cases, it can lead to devastating consequences such as suicide.

The life of relationship of young people in educational centers is complex, it is crossed by the feelings, emotions, attitudes, and values that they display among themselves when they live together in a stable and prolonged way.

The events and happenings to which they are exposed and in which they participate are common, and this gives rise to in them the self-perception that they are on the same ship, which is heading to nearby ports.

At any age it is necessary to feel good enough that others want to be around, talk and do things with us. But, especially, in the early teen years it is very important to have friends and be accepted by others.

Feelings of friendship produce great satisfaction, feed personal esteem and expand the field of social action, causing self-confidence.

But not always the belonging to a group implies the feelings of friendship that the child seeks, sometimes the incorporation to a group goes through accepting the rules, obediently assuming the habits of this, following their leaders and silencing their desires and own initiatives.

This type of incorporation into groups, relatively abundant in the ages of adolescence, is cruel and provokes very ambivalent feelings.

Dedicated to all children and young people who face toxic and abusive environments every day, in their schools, in their communities and in their homes...

A voice of hope for the change we need towards concord and respect... And for the true acceptance of others as they are.
