Resumen

In Colombia they are observed every day in the news, in the newspapers, in the schools, in the streets of the cities; in reality everywhere, it is only enough to pay a little more attention and be more aware of what is happening around us to realize that a minor is being mistreated either physically, emotionally or psychologically; be it for their relatives, partners, acquaintances and on many occasions even for the people who ignore these situations and who are only spectators and critics, some are aware that what happens is not adequate but they simply do not react and only look as something else that happens and unfortunately a daily live of our reality.   Nationally, according to statistics presented by the ICBF (Colombian Institute of Family Welfare), in the last 3 years there have been the abuse of 3,266 children in Bogotá, 1,224 in Cundinamarca and 20,526 throughout the country. This, not counting the events not reported. Although the cases have been gradually reduced over the past three years (there were 260 fewer cases between 2012 and 2014) according to the ICBF, the situation remains worrying. According to the Legal Medicine report, more than 3,000 cases of sexual violence, 2,000 cases of physical abuse, more than 6,000 for interpersonal violence and more than 100 homicides of minors are registered annually in the city of Bogotá. In Bogotá, according to Nieto Blanco, he revealed a study with figures of child abuse, carried out by the Center for Study and Analysis in Coexistence and Citizen Security, CEACSC, of the District Secretariat of Government of Bogotá, in which it is indicated that in the period of January As of March of this year, 86.8% of the cases of child abuse are the parents themselves.
