blog 2

Parent's and faculty need to be more aware of and speak out about bullying in order to prevent it. Bullying seems to continue and is geting worse especially with technology.  This website shares an overview of cyberbullying. It is very common and can include many students which can be hurtful and embarrassing to the student being bullied. Online bullying is a serious problem and there needs to be stricter rules to dealing with it. Bullying can affect a child's self-esteem, willingness to want to go to school, can lead them into a depression, etc. Parents might not always be present with cyber bullying so they must pay attention to their children and what they are doing on the internet.

What does everyone else think about cyber bullying?
Do you think it will ever end?
What must we do in order to prevent this?
What about children who committ suicide over this?
