Cyber bulling

cyberbullying is something that is worst than regular bullying I think personally. people can end bullying in person but its harder to prevent cyberbullying. you can take a picture of a person and go on a website to make the person in the picture look silly and once things are on the internet they are there forever so people all over the world could see. cyberbullying can not only offend the person who is being made fun of but also people who are similar to the person and their family also. cyberbullying is so effective that some people will stop using computers or even commit suicide and what people don't understand is that words hurt the most, especially when you hear it over and over from a bunch of people.

cyberbullying also can be committed threw cellphone which i think is the worst of all. people can send rumor messages even send a forward rumor message about someone to everyone in their phone and then those people can send to everyone in their phone and so on. personal pictures get sent to others which can end up in the wrong hands or maybe even their parents phone. people can even block their number to call and harass you, and you would have no clue who it is all because their number is blocked. i strongly think that world needs to do something about cyberbullying, bullying in general needs to stop because lives are destroyed because of it. :*(

bullying is something that happens in every school but it needs to stop. bullying hurts people so much that they are willing to kill themselves just to get away from it. for example an 14 yr old boy named Jamey Rodemeyer just killed his self due to the hate & bullying towards him because he was  gay. he loved lady gaga & looked up to her as his idol because she is also gay but her music made Jamey feel better. he also would make tweets & write on facebook about how he felt about being bullied & called gay, he even made a video called it gets better but with all the support from people online & music he would listen it wasn't enough to save Jamey's life.  "Hold your head up and you'll go far. Because that's all you have to do, just love yourself and you're set" Jamey R.


there was also a case of bullying towards a boy Jim Harlod Jr. he was being bullied & even getting physically hurt by people from his school on the daily, his parents would always ask why he wouldn't tell on the kids. but it wasn't that he didn't want to tell, he couldn't because he had asperger. Jim is now a senior & school is going fine. he is proud of himself & is happy in life. "In that respect, all the crap I went through, I wouldn't trade it for a minute, because it made me who I am." - Jim H.



For a little 6th grade girl she was bullied physically which i think is wrong & the other thing was it was boys who were doing it. she didn't want to get on the bus because of it & when she told on the boy who was doing the bullying it just got worst. after she told on the boys his friends took from where he left off. it got so bad that the mother took the poor girl out of school for while. "I kept on telling her, 'Don't let me ride the bus. I don't want to get on the bus. Please, don't make me get on the bus.'" Elise G.
