İKÜ CEHAMER academician Münevver Mertoğlu was the last guest of the “Life Now and in the Future Kültür Academy - Mental and Physical Health Workshop” organized by the Kültür Point. The webinar titled “The Effect of Children and Parents on Uncontrollable Anger and Violence during Pandemic” on Thursday, April 29, 2021, was held on Adobe Connect Virtual Classroom Application.

In the presentation that started with the explanation of violence, Mertoğlu explained what should be done to reduce uncontrollable anger and violent behaviors during the stay at home. She stated that people try to adapt to situations where they have no choice. She shared with the participants that resilience is a behavior that can be learned from birth as well as later learned, and that especially parents should be an example for their children in this process.

Stating that anger and violent behaviors, uncertainty and desperation during the stay at home increase anxiety, Mertoğlu emphasized that the weary situations of this process and the change in the daily routines of individuals due to the pandemic also cause tension and unhappiness.
