The article is an analysis of the mobbing problem occurrence among children adolescents, establishing the causes of a school environment the main characteristics of the concept and finding ways to prevent mobbing. The method of studying the problem of mobbing in children in the school environment explains to us the root causes of its occurrence, reveals the very essence of its appearance, as well as the manifestations of mobbing in middle school age children from their peers.In a deeper analysis of the problem of mobbing, we identified the main aspects of preventing this phenomenon, also developed a methodological plan for the prevention of mobbing in schools, and developed and described preventive measures to prevent manifestations among middle school children for teachers and parents who have and can influence students or their children in the context of this issue. The findings of this paper reflect the state of the problem of mobbing in the current educational process in Ukraine, taking into account the actualization of its manifestations due to the large number of displaced persons, including middle-aged children, from temporarily occupied territories during the Russian armed aggression against our country. The processes taking place in our extremes and in the world are inevitable for society as a whole, and so the challenge we face requires more detailed consideration of the issue of mobbing among adolescents of schools, the urgent response to its present manifestations, and addressing these issues, specifics of personal approaches to middle school children in each case. Analyzing the problem of mobbing among children in school, especially middle school children, we have come to the conclusion that the multiplicity of influence factors determines the direction of the study of the problem and gives this problem a new special approach, taking into account many points, and obliges us to solve the problem of mobbing the school, so that it does not persecute a person who is primarily a person, in adolescence and adulthood.

Using a middle-school age sample of 120 an investigation of the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale's construct validity was undertaken. Specifically, the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale total score and two factor scores were correlated with scores on Harter's (1985) multidimensional Self-perception Profile for Children. Using a series of stepwise multiple regression analyses, for both factors of the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale and total score, the first identified predictor variable was Global Self-worth among Harter's six subscales. Other findings were the high internal consistency (α .84) and the lack of statistically significant differences by gender or grade. Findings are supportive of the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale as a unidimensional measure of global self-esteem with middle-school age children.

This work is centrally focused on population growth and how it affect the enrollment of school age children (6-11 years age group). The population of 2006 (199,674) was used as the base year to project the 2011 (234,329), 2016 (274,972) and 2021 (322,688) populations using the exponential growth model. Enrollment ratio was obtained by relating the total population of a particular level to the population that were enrolled at that particular level base on sex structure, the Gross Enrollment Ratio (GER) for male pupils from 2006 and 2011 was 70.21581% and 70.21696% which implies that 29.784% and 29.78304% of the male school age children are yet to be enrolled in schools, with a slight increase from 2006 to 2011. For 2016 and 2021, the GER is 70.2160% and 70.21696%, that is, 29.784% and 29.7822% of the male school age children will not be enrolled in schools with a slight increase from 2016 to 2021. The GER for female pupils from 2006 and 2011 was 74.03832% and 74.03432% which implies that 25.9618% and 25.96568% of the female school age children are yet to be enrolled in schools, 2016 to 2021 is 74.0347% and 74.0374% meaning that 25.96168% and 25.9626% of the female school age children will not be enrolled in schools by 2016 to 2021. The Sprague multipliers coefficient (SMC) table was applied to break down the five (5) years age group in to sex structures, in which the total age population at primary school (6-11) years as of 2006 base on sex structure was 14,689 and 13,258 for male and female respectively, for 2011 was 17,239 and 21,427 for male and female respectively. This paper has shown that, while the population of Yola-North LGA is rapidly growing, the enrollment of school age children is also increasing but very slowly.

Situations that parents handle affect how they parent their children and this will affect howtheir children develop later on. The aim of this research is to analyze how parenting stressaffects other factors in parent’s psychological condition, especially in their self-esteem. Thisresearch was held to parents with middle school children who live in JABODETABEK with241 participants. The scale that was used to measure parenting stress is the one that Berry andJones (1995) developed and to measure self-esteem is The Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventorythat was developed by Ryden (1978). This research used a quantitative descriptive method todescribe parenting stress and self-esteem of participants and used simple regression analysisto measure how parenting stress affects self-esteem of middle school children’s parents. Fromthe statistical analysis it was found that parenting stress contributed negatively (t (241) = -7.330, p <0.005) to self-esteem of parents with middle school age children in JABODETABEK.The higher the parenting stress the lower self-esteem becomes. Parenting stress contributed 18percent to self-esteem that means the remaining 82 percent of a parent's self-esteem wasdetermined by other factors.
