Students will learn about online
privacy and the importance of keeping personal
information safe while using the internet. They
will understand the concept of personal
information and the potential risks of sharing it
online. Students will explore safe and unsafe
online behaviours, comparing them to playground
behaviours, and develop an understanding of
actions to take when encountering uncomfortable
situations online. Trusted adults play a crucial role
in guiding and supporting students, encouraging
them to seek help whenever necessary.

All caregivers have a responsibility to protect and care for
children. First responders are heroes (who don’t wear capes)
and are able to reach out with their insights and skills to provide
comfort and to help soothe the child’s pain and confusion.
First responders may include community workers or leaders,
nurses, child and youth care workers, teachers, social workers,
paramedics and police officers.
This guide is divided into sections. It talks about the need
to care for yourself so you can care for others. It discusses
trauma – what it is, how it affects us and children – and provides
information about how trauma affects children in various stages
of development. The guide shares information on Psychological
First Aid (PFA) for children. It tells you what needs to be
reported and to whom. As a bonus, there is a short section
about personal reflections and a list of resources about PFA you
might find interesting.

The effects of cult’s on its members are well documented in both the
research literature and the media, and focus mainly on negative
aspects (Dawson, 2006; Olson, 2006).
Although the research literature has examined the perceptions of
cult members and the social and psychological processes related to
the formation of cults, there is almost no reference in the research
literature nor even public visibility to the point
of view of children that were born or raised in cults.

Objective
Since suicidality risk factors in adolescents and young people have been identified primarily in HIC, these risk factors mainly encompass mental health problems and ACEs, and few studies have reported these
issues in LMIC. Therefore, this study aims to determine the relationship between symptoms of mental health problems and ACEs with suicidal behavior in Mexican adolescents.
