Safety
When we say or feel safe, it means that we have freedom to develop our life without fear. Safety is a basic human need and when it is violated, when it is disrespected or even taken away from a human being, especially a child, the result is disastrous. The lack of support and/or someone you can trust generates doubts, anxiety, low self-esteem, among other issues that completely change the healthy path that a child should take to develop.

90% of teenagers who interact on social media have ignored some case of bullying they have witnessed, while a third of them have been the victim of cyberbullying themselves.
According to Internetsafety101.org , 90% of teenagers who interact on social media have ignored some case of bullying they have witnessed, while a third of them have been the victim of cyberbullying themselves. Social media and online games are today where children have fun in the virtual world, where most cases of cyber bullying occur. For example, children can be teased in social media interactions. Or, in online games, they or their "game characters" may be subject to incessant attacks, turning a game that was supposed to be a creative adventure into a humiliation.
The best method of protecting yourself from cyberbullying is to be comfortable talking to children about what's going on in their lives and how to prepare for potential bullying.
What can we do ?
To prevent
We know that prevention is better than facing a problem that is often irreparable, promoting preventive actions is essential and urgent.
Online and in-person events;
Lectures in communities, associations, cooperatives;
Promote open conversation on the subject in schools, condominiums, child-related events, among others;
Train and strengthen children on related topics so that they can react;
To remedy
Only after outlining opportunities for improvement, whether through statistics from recognized institutes such as Cetic.br, Online Kids Research, or analysis of real or fictitious situations and scenarios, do we design an "Action Plan" with the primary objective of transforming the reality we encounter for the better.
