The phenomenon of bullying has reached great proportions in Greek schools, as more than 1 in 10 students have been victims of bullying, vulgar language attacks and promotion on the Internet.
Medicines comments for external appearance, obscene gestures, spreading malicious rumors for the purpose of publicity, but also threats through Facebook, make up the so-called bullying, of which approximately 10-15% of Greek students, children and teenagers have fallen victim, reports Kathimerini in a publication.
Indeed, the University Research Institute for Mental Health reports that 8,5% of adolescents say they are intimidated at least two to three times a month, while at a rate of 15,8% they admit that they are bullying. In a similar 2002 survey, the percentage of those who claimed to be intimidating others did not exceed 9,1%.
From a large survey of the "Smile of the Child", in the context of a pan-European campaign, it emerged that approximately 32% of students have been the victim of bullying at least once (34,2% boys, 29,71% girla), while 30,2% have at some point been perpetrators of such incidents.
What are the forms of bullying and how they are used:
• Use deceptive names: 60,69%
• Pushes and knocks: 45,39%
• External effects: 36,3%
• Posting degraded photos over the Internet: 14,26%
