Cyberbullying

Postby Allius » 22 Aug 2015, 19:03

Cyberbullying is "the act of using the Internet, cell phones, video games, or other technology gadgets to send, text, or post images intended to hurt or embarrass another person".

Unfortunately there are so many cases of cyberbullying. Have you ever been a victim of cyberbullying? or do you know some stories about cyberbullying? Share :|

So far I have not had this sadness to fall prey to these fools, but nothing is certain in this crazy world, so we should care as much, though I hope not to have these cyberbullying. :mrgreen:

I seen it happen on another site a small group bothering others they don't like it can get really bad. Enough people complained they were booted from the site but they are still around.

You just have to be really careful if someone is bothering you on a site avoid them and don't answer them save all messages from them.

I think the most famous case of cyberbullying was Rebecca Black and her song Friday. People can be so stupid and cruel

- you are right :(

Unfortunately there are many known cases of cyberbullying ... and the most famous are those who have a tragic end, that is, suicide.
One of the most famous cases I can remember happened in Canada, the case of Amanda.
The effects of cyberbullying in the victims tend to be even more serious than in cases of bullying because in cyberbullying victims are more exposed. For example, when a video becomes viral can be seen by thousands or even millions of people... Can you imagine youself in that situation? :(

I think there is only that because there is a proper punishment for those who do it, if there is a law against it think it would decrease
because people think they will get away with anything to do

Recently I had a video on my facebook of a 13 year old girl being kicked punched and pulled along by her hair by a 15 year old girl. Other children stood around laughing and one of them filmed the whole thing. My first instinct was to condemn the person who filmed it but because she did the bully was caught and brought to justice.

It was horrible and brought tears to my eyes because no one went to help her. There are other videos which can be brought up online where youngsters think it's funny to bully their peers and then film it. Whatever are these kids thinking? Is this a sign of the times?

I have never been a victim of cyber bullying but i see it all the time especially on Facebook and Whatsapp. There are those people who cannot wait to hit on others especially when they are not getting along and so they end up posting some messages for them to see.
