Cyberbullying trends and leadership development in children
A new form of cyberbullying, referred to as ‘los curis’, is emerging among primary school students, causing significant disruption to school coexistence. This behavior involves ridiculing teachers and peers, leading to calls for investigations into the practice as a potential criminal offense. Such actions may result in legal sanctions for parents, who are viewed as the primary responsible parties for their children's education.
In contrast to these negative social trends, psychological research suggests that positive leadership in children is built through specific domestic habits. Children who demonstrate leadership qualities, such as the ability to influence others positively and take initiative, often exhibit habits of collaboration, care for personal belongings, and commitment to responsibilities at home. These traits are linked to better professional prospects and emotional well-being in adulthood.
