Barcelona (EFE) who was bullied at school.
The boy “has miraculously survived a 14-meter fall”, but has “broken arms, legs and two ribs, in addition to two fractured vertebrae” and “he has already undergone various surgeries”, the father, Josep Gual Rebull, has made public in social networks “at the request” of your child.
“I don’t know where to start, my wife and I are going through the worst days of our lives,” begins the father’s post, which is accompanied by a photograph of the child in the hospital, where you can see the seriousness of his condition.
According to the parent, Pol “has a degree of autism” and “difficulties in relating, but he is very intelligent and realizes everything that surrounds him.”
Apparently, according to the father’s testimony, before throwing himself in, the young man wrote that he did not want to live “in a world where bad people are applauded and sensitive, noble, and good-hearted people always have to lose.”
The father considers that his son was not a “direct” victim of bullying, although he adds that “there are many ways to make people feel bad and it all adds up” and that Pol was the victim of laughter and expressions such as “this guy is a weirdo look at how he moves, he doesn’t relate to anyone”.
“And so he was completely alone day after day, in the playground, in the library, so as not to be teased,” deplores the father, who laments that “until the day comes when his logical mind says… what do I do?” here, I no longer have moments of happiness.”
The parent adds that “parents are very important” but “in this phase of life the relationship with their peers is vital”.
According to Josep Gual, his son “wants to get well to start a new life and be able to explain his experience and make adolescents aware that with their attitude they can cause these situations.”
This is the second case, in a week, of minors who jump off the balcony after a 12-year-old girl died in Sallent (Barcelona) for this reason, while her twin sister was seriously injured, in a case attributed to several factors, among others, to the bullying they suffered.
