Cyber Bullying

Cyber bullying is a form of harassment. Many teens become targets as they become part of social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, and other websites. What exactly is cyber bullying? It is where one or more persons can send mean, vulgar, or insulting threats to another, posting sensitive or private information about another person, posing as someone else to make the victim look bad, and intentionally excluding someone on an online conversation. Only 58% of kids admit someone has said something hurtful to them or a friend. Cyber bullies can make someone feel so worthless inside and that no one cares. This kind of act can make someone commit suicide. This kind of violence needs to be stopped. If you or someone you know is being bullied, please call this number and receive help. 1-800-RUNAWAY.
