(by Francesca Proietti Cosimi) The roles of bullying are well defined: on the one hand there is the bully, the one who carries out violent behavior physically and / or psychologically and, on the other side, the victim, the one who undergoes such attitudes . Psychological suffering and social exclusion are often experienced by children who, without choosing it, find themselves clothed in the role of the victim undergoing repeated humiliation by those who instead play the role of a bully.
The context in which this phenomenon occurs is mainly the scholastic environment, in which there are hardly any mature children able to relate adequately with others and in which conflicts, rivalries and threats are easily created. At school, an environment obliged by everyone, it is also easy to find the weakest, most fragile person, who, if not able to defend himself, is targeted and "bulled".
Too often, however, in recent times the word has become more extreme, now anything you say is pointed out as a form of bullying, perhaps because we let people who are not expert explain what it really means.
The fight against bullying or against violence can not be done by those who have read it in a script, or listened to a case, in the front line there must be those who have tried it on their skin, they have to take to the streets and fight for those who have no voice.
Our President Mattarella has rewarded Anna the child who is dancing against bullying, so let's take an example from this award and give voice to those who still carry the signs inside.
