Roman Chuprikov, an adviser to Russia’s top official for children’s rights, said on Thursday that suicides among minors have skyrocketed by 40 percent since 2020.
While his boss was working on that project, Chuprikov dropped the stunning statistics that “registered” suicides among children rose from 548 in 2020 to 753 last year.
RFE cited several reasons for Russia’s increase in child suicides, including Putin’s insistence on “adding military, patriotic, and religious components to otherwise standard school curriculum,” which makes children from dissident families and ethnic minorities feel ostracized and depressed. Some parents described their suicidal children as victims of extreme bullying, from both fellow students and school staff.
RFE noted that Russia’s schools have “little support” and are “often unprepared to intervene in cases of troubled pupils.” “In the Soviet era, suicide was considered an affront to the state, the failure of a citizen to fulfill his responsibility. Psychiatry was more often associated with punishment than with therapy, and that left a stigma and mistrust of mental health care that persists,” theSome Russian parents blame the Internet for making children more prone to suicide.
