Las Consecuencias de la Violencia IntrafamiliauUn Reflejo Desde las Aulas de Educación Infantil

Abstract

This research, based on a documentary review, seeks to analyze the consequences of domestic violence on the emotional, social, and cognitive development of children in Colombia. According to Barrios (n.d.), children who grow up in violent contexts often face high levels of stress and anxiety, which makes it difficult to establish healthy relationships with peers and teachers. Miller (2024) states that these children arrive at school with a significant emotional burden, which impacts their social adaptation and willingness to learn. The purpose of the analysis is to understand how this violence affects the educational process and interpersonal relationships, as well as to highlight the role of teachers as key agents in fostering resilience. The research reviewed shows that domestic violence leaves deep marks on children, which manifest in the classroom, especially in early childhood education. However, the need to transform the classroom into a space of acceptance, understanding, and emotional support is emphasized. The recommendations of this study offer useful pedagogical tools for future educational intervention projects, emphasizing sensitive approaches that promote empathy, safety, and emotional well-being. In this sense, it is proposed that the school environment become a safe haven for children who are victims of domestic violence, where their reality is recognized and effectively addressed. Keywords: domestic violence, childhood trauma, impact on learning, pedagogical strategies, emotional well-being.
