Child and adolescent mobbing: how to protect your child?

18.12.2018

Today we will talk about child and adolescent mobbing. The topics are complex; they are problematic topics that they don't like to talk about, which have been hushed up and are being hushed up. I am constantly faced with the fact that neither teachers nor parents want to talk about this; children do not like to talk about this, and this is quite natural from a psychological point of view, because bullying and persecution are the norm for children and teenagers, and this is a common situation in their lives.

School mobbing

The concept of mobbing was introduced in 1963 by Austrian zoopsychologist Konrad Lorenz. He called mobbing the phenomenon of several small animals attacking a larger enemy. The term became famous after the publication in 1972 of a work by Swedish physician P. Hyneman, who compared children's violent behavior towards their peers with aggressive animal behavior and called it mobbing. In its modern sense, the term was first used by the Swedish researcher of work psychology H. Leyman, who studied the peculiarities of people's behavior in a team in the early 80s of the 20th century.
