98 suicides among children occurred in Kyrgyzstan in 2020

AKIPRESS.COM - In 2020, 98 suicides were committed among children against 48 cases of suicide among minors in 2019, said Deputy Minister of Health and Social Development Aliza Soltonbekova on April 12 at a meeting with First Deputy Prime Minister Artem Novikov on violence against women and children.
Analysis showed that not only children from dysfunctional families commit suicide, but also from ordinary families.
Parents lack a culture of communication with children, which negatively affects their psychological condition and leads to tragedies, said the deputy minister.
At the end of the first quarter of 2021, 1,463 cases of domestic violence and 129 cases of violence and child abuse were revealed in Kyrgyzstan.
