The Lawyers Association stressed the importance of the “Aman” initiative that was launched and is concerned with protecting children from all forms of violence and bullying in schools, directly or electronically. Lawyer Salem Al-Saad, representing the Lawyers Association, told KUNA that the Association is a sponsor of this ambitious initiative aimed at protecting children from violence and bullying, and is keen to sponsor such initiatives that concern Kuwaiti society in all its aspects. Al-Saad added that bullying and violence are widespread phenomena in Kuwaiti society and must be curbed because they negatively affect the child’s psychology, indicating that the association is in the process of drafting a law specifically for these two phenomena and submitting it to the competent authorities to work on legislating and reducing them. He explained that a special booth for the initiative was opened today in the Avenues Mall, in which cases exposed to violence and bullying are received to provide solutions on how to deal with children exposed to these two phenomena over a period of three continuous days until next Saturday.
