The use a nondirective approach has allowed young people to work in a climate of freedom and responsibility in which we analyzed the preconceptions and prejudices about the role of the victim but also on the bully. Bullying has been described by children as an attack involving an injury to the person of character and mental and physical responses of the victim often linked to feelings of fear, panic and sense of insecurity to the outside world and especially to the world of peers.
