    I think technology is a great way to expose quickly a lot of violence situations, but I also think that we can´t believe everything we read. It could be a very helpful tool, but it can turn into a obstacle if we are not careful.

    Nowadays the existence of social network and new technologies would be an excellent panorama to stablish a web of support of each others.
