Emotional threats and psychological abuse: prevention and conviction

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

I dream about a future were narcissistic abuse, psychological and emotional abuse and threats and emotional domestic violence are punished with jail.
Emotional abuse is not considered a crime, like murder, but it can harm people, and their self-esteem.
I dream about a future where bullies at high school are brought to reformatory and encouraged to change their behaviors... A future in which people are not subject to cyberbullies' threats of death or misery, because they published a stupid post on social media.

I dream about a future were a woman who is emotionally or financially abused by her partner can have him removed from their home without having to provide "proof" of physical abuse or having to deal with unfair justice.

I dream about a future where sexual coercion is punished, together with rape.

Human dignity needs to be protected and safeguarded by strong laws. Being harmed emotionally can be quite damaging as like as being harmed physically.
The scars would not be as visible, but they can have consequences as well.

I dream about a future where people with dissociative social disorders are reeducated in order to be re-inserted in the society.

After my volontary work experience and after having seen people suffering from this, I dream about a future where emotional wellbeing is a top priority in all European countries.

Kurztrip zum Mond
I imagine that in 2025 I will be able to take a spontaneous day trip to the moon with my family. There we can experience the wonders of weightlessness and enjoy a fantastic view of the blue planet, our home, from above. Such a short break far above our usual hemisphere is a very special experience.

Ein Tag im Europa des Jahres 2050
The morning sun bathes the Berlin skyline in a golden light. I open the windows of my energy self-sufficient apartment - built from recycled materials, climate-neutral and fully connected. My personal AI assistant suggests sustainable options for the day: An appointment with an international team in a virtual conference environment, followed by a visit to the urban garden on the roof of our apartment complex. Europe has changed fundamentally since 2025. The transition to a circular economy has been accelerated by political decisions and fossil fuels have long been a thing of the past. Thanks to new technologies and AI-supported automation, society is more flexible and fairer. Education is digital, individualized and available throughout life. Social security systems guarantee a decent life for all. Vehicles drive silently and autonomously on the roads. Public transportation is free, financed by a Europe-wide digital tax. The air is clean, green parks dot the cities. I meet up with friends in a café where food waste no longer exists - everything is used sustainably. As I enjoy the view, I think about the challenges that Europe has overcome: Climate change, social inequality and economic disruption. But by acting together, we have created a future that is more sustainable, fairer and more liveable - for all Europeans.

Un avenir inclusif et solidaire
In 2040, I'd like to see a world where education is truly inclusive and values all pathways, especially vocational education. A system where every student finds his or her place and develops his or her talents, with no hierarchy between streams. Inequalities in access to culture and healthcare would be reduced thanks to ambitious policies. Preventive health care would be a priority, with fair treatment for all. Finally, society would be more ecological, with responsible consumer choices and technological advances serving the common good. A fairer, more united and more respectful world.
