Here is the first page of the newspaper Excelsior today. What's so funny? Do you notice anything different? Since I picked the newspaper which had just launched the dealer, I found that the main news of the deaths caused by bullying in schools, child suicides apparently derived where the victims could not survive the pressure and harassment that some children apparently make on others. The news of the cover is exactly this:

Bullying
killed 190
Every 48 hours, the Citizen Council for Public Security and Justice of the City receives a complaint of bullying, while in Motion Foundation says that in 2010 it reported 190 suicides motivated harassment student, rising by 4.750% compared to 2009, where only four deaths occurred as a result.
"We have received calls from schools located in 73 colonies of the city," explained Luis Wertman, president of the Council.
The calls, according to the City Council, are primarily delegations Coyoacan Iztapalapa, Gustavo A. Madero, Xochimilco, and Álvaro Obregón Azcapotzalco, as well as neighboring municipalities of Ixtapaluca and Nezahualcoyotl.
yesterday, signing an agreement between the Foundation and the Citizens' Council movement to receive training from this organization in serious cases of bullying among young people, explained that in the span of 180 days have received 94 calls.
Of this amount, said Wertman, 82% were made by parents, 10% by friends or acquaintances, 6% by the students and in one case received a complaint from a teacher. Trixie

Valle explained that this type of abuse occurs mostly in the courtyards and baths, for the lack of supervision, and allows for labels on children as reflected in the rest of his life, such as abusers or victims .
"This is a very worrying is a context of sadness that they are seeing the country and are reflected in the classroom, it is essential to end this because we know that is the prelude to the crime, "he reiterated Valley.
pattern for victims of bullying, Valle said, is when children do not want to see eyes, or bend, posing a problem of self-esteem that can lead to suicide.
In this regard, Luis Wertman added that in 46 percent of cases reported to the City Council, the plaintiffs determined not to act and stay in the area for information on actions that can be done in the program.
Meanwhile, the rest of the users used the services of psychologists are there in the Council.
The agreement seeks to establish a specialized training for operators of the Civic line, phone 55-33-55-33, and thus become a first instance of care.
So much for the news story.
In my opinion, it is strange that a note from a local problem, which would have to consider whether it is true the information that the note-achieved front page. But look at what it says and see how far this is from bullying
a real problem, or is simply a more exaggerated, as he usually does the press, by the eagerness to sell at all costs.
On the other hand, if suicide, read well, Suicide, 190 children, read it again carefully: CHILDREN, then we have a problem that goes beyond bullying. What is the rate of suicide among children in developed countries? For example, in the United States, a country where statistical studies are done every day, it was found that according to this site
, 1 to 2 children under age 15 commit suicide per 100,000 inhabitants. But what causes these deaths? In the United States, the main reason firearms are that children are often driven by accident, negligence, because Americans live, apparently assembled in a large percentage. The other two most common causes are suicides by poisoning and strangulation. 
But let the planet Earth. What is the rate of suicide among young people? According to this site
, suicide in persons 15 to 24 years (which probably does not qualify as a possible cause for the ages bullying are handled), it was found that was 9.9 people per 100,000 inhabitants. The reasons? accidental injury and homicide. (Talking about U.S. data, 2001). But in Sweden, interestingly, the rate is very similar to that found in Americans. For some reason, the number of deaths by suicide in Sweden has decreased considerably, but remains the same as in the United States for this group of 15 to 24. 
But let the planet Earth. What is the rate of suicide among young people? According to this site The suicide rate in Europe is from 22.2 to 4.8 for boys and girls, on average close to 13 (pro per 100,000 inhabitants). The statistics were made for a sample of 33 European countries. The top of suicides is located in Russia (32/100, 000), followed by Lithuania, Finland, Latvia and Slovenia. Sweden is less than 10/100, 000) and is located in the place 18. At the end of the list are Great Britain, Spain, Portugal, Italy and finally Greece, 3 / 100, 000.
But what are the causes of suicide? According to studies of the page indicated, children commit suicide have a depressive disorder. About 22% of depressed children attempt to commit suicide. There are also other disorders such as anxiety or substance abuse problems also drogas.Curiosamente the study does not speak to the reasons for suicide are the bullying.
Therefore, all the note is full of speculation bordering on falsehood. I went to school for many years. I was always the youngest in my class and although I remember one other partner aggressive, violent, ready to harass and annoy, it is clear that survived this. Say that the article is putting children harassing, bullying those who do almost level with criminals, when they are not. In fact, so many years of school, I remember having heard or heard of a suicide of colleagues or students in other grades.
Today, after reading this news, I heard on the radio that a Mexican government official rejected the figures presented by the newspaper Excelsior. I could not hear the reasons adduced, which left pending.
The issue here is that, after reviewing data from other sources, is in the best case, data from the reporter or of those interviewed, are more speculation than hard data. Submit this note on the front page confirms my suspicion that the media in this country have decided that you have to keep readers anxiously. If there are no local, will be the climate change problem. If not that, it will be the pandemic of AIDS / HIV, if this is forgotten, then invent a note showing that taxi assault 1 in 3 users and lies of this sort. The issue is to stay scared. It sells insurance.
