cyberbullying and harassment through ICTs: Old and new problems? Recommendations

With the increasing use undisputed - the appropriation- of different technology devices by children in our society , what do you do? First, archaic structures not replicate these moments. That is, although the social, educational, parenting, relationship are basically the same, the way they present different characteristics due to the stamp of ownership that the kids do and new media technologies communication.

Some examples: always existed in schools coexistence problems in children more aggressive than others. Today, the all Internet access and cellular causes of aggression can be at all times and everywhere . and attackers can not hide behind the anonymity problem offered, for example, the publication of an aggressive post a reply or website of the victim. "Old Problem? Yes, because it is working with the students the respect for others, honesty, the courage to say things against the ethics of coexistence. New to problem? Also, because the mode presented is so different, that you can still use the same resources. Teachers, in this case, should be familiar with the devices they are using their students to think of new strategies for your work.

Another example: There was always, at all times, in danger from ill adults who abused, harassed or simply sexual gratification with children. But today, chat, photos naively postean children, the information they give their personal lives and, again, the possibility of anonymity afforded by the digital age makes these people can extract information, build contacts with children through false identities, etc.. "Old Problem? Again, yes. New to the problem? No doubt for the same reason as in the example above. Internet is becoming a new scenario where they happen abuse of children, even when there is no physical contact. In this case, different legislative bodies should amend the laws so that new ways of approaching for these purposes for children is punishable.

social Each space must reflect and draw conclusions , which will, no doubt, somewhere between the problems of new forms provided that they are presented with dynamic, changing formats and subjectivities so different that "almost" become new problems. No one should miss these new forms : neither the teachers (to teach better understanding of new tastes and habits and rules that govern the lives of children) and parents (to suggest with more conviction patterns prevention and care that their sons and daughters should build) and legislators (to be permanently recognize new forms of crime in order to act accordingly). Children are appropriated each new technological device that appears on the market without asking permission adults. But is our responsibility to think first and then promoting good practices and positive uses of the latter, not to lose sight of the social, family and education must always be upholding and promoting these uses.

Chicos.net Since the Civil Association promote awareness of these problems by social actors, especially children and teenagers, so they can continue to enjoy and grow with all these screens that did not exist in our childhoods but from a fun but also healthy. Marcela
