Bullying in Ecuador
The “bullying” is a topic that people suffer all the time. The bullying is a topic
that people talk all the time. In our schools, the teachers all time said to us that
we have to respect others if we want respect. The respect is a manner of both
side, but we are living in a society that people doesn’t care about others and
their rights have to be complete by passing throw others and hearting others.
People that have problems
in their families, sometimes
feel better making other
people felt less than others.
But in some cases children
only make bullying in a way
of fun. They think and feel
happy when they see pain
and fear in the eyes of the
other person. In special
cases people have mental
diseases, they can´t control
their self. According to Isabella Alarcon, in Ecuador the level of bullying is so
high. In Ecuador 7 out 10 children have suffer bullying and they have been
witnessed in their schools. Prevent violence is one of the main concept of the
“Unicef”. One of the
most important campaign
that UNICEF have is
“Ahora que lo ves”
people of UNICEF are
working in schools of the
country to control and
avoid this big problem.
That is what said Grant
Lealty, the representative
of this organization. But
the bullying in the
schools is not the only
type of bullying that we have in the country. According to Enrique Pesantes, the
sexual identity and harassment of bullying is the second cause of suicide in
