Cyber bullying is a big problem all across America and it is doing nothing but increasing. I’m almost scared of cyber bullying and it actually really upsets me. In my mind I couldn’t even imagine being bullied through the internet and having some dumb kid do this to you through the internet!!! I read a couple of articles and found that cyber bullying obviously mostly comes from social networking websites. Facebook is a common place where cyber bullying occurs. But pretty much any website where kids can interact there is some sort of cyber bullying going on. Cyber bullying worries me not only because it can happen to me but that it can happen to friends of mine which can be just as bad. And the worst part about cyber bullying in my opinion is the seriousness of it. People might think of cyber bulling as one kid getting his feelings hurt through the internet. But that’s not true. Lately bullying has affected a number of kids so much that some of them have hung themselves. Cyber bullying is doing the same thing to some kids. Some kids are going through so much pain because of cyber bullying that they have not only thought of killing themselves but actually done it!!! In fact one of my mom’s co-workers nephew killed himself because of cyber bullying. Cyber bullying isn’t a matter of feelings hurt. It can come down to such awful situations where a kid is thinking to him/her self life or death? Obviously things are trying to be done to stop cyber bullying. But I think there needs to be more.
