User blog:Russelrules44/Cyberbullying and how we can stop it.

Hello everyone. This is RR44 here, with my first blog since returning. Recently, I've been watching a movie called Cyberbully and it got me thinking.......

Cyberbullies are a part of life...on the internet...it is like bullying, but parents cannot help you because it is on the web, it is unfortunate because I know that cyberbullying is wrong and disgusting.

But as much as I hate to say it.....It's stuck with us.....and while it is a common force in our lifes........There is another way we can stop it.

If someone you know is being bullied online, tell a grownup, tell a person you know, a teacher, your parents, but don't bully them back.

If you are being bullied online, tell a person you know and try to stop it.

If it continues, try talking to that person who is bullying the person or you, maybe you make a compromise. But if it presists, enough is enough, take a stand on the person who is bullying that person and in a civil manner, tell that person off for what they are, maybe it will make a group a people stand up against that person too.

But the best way to tell someone about this, hopefully they can stop the problem before it gets far worse.

Read this.

According to the Cyberbullying Research Center, "there have been several high‐profile cases involving teenagers taking their own lives in part because of being harassed and mistreated over the Internet, a phenomenon we have termed cyberbullicide – suicide indirectly or directly influenced by experiences with online aggression."

Cyberbullying is an intense form of psychological abuse, whose victims are more than twice as likely to suffer from mental disorders compared to traditional bullying.[66]

The reluctance youth have in telling an authority figure about instances of cyberbullying has led to fatal outcomes. At least three children between the ages of 12 and 13 have committed suicide due to depression brought on by cyberbullying, according to reports by USA Today and the Baltimore Examiner. These would include the suicide of Ryan Halligan and thesuicide of Megan Meier, the latter of which resulted in United States v. Lori Drew.

More recently, teenage suicides tied to cyberbullying have become more prevalent. The latest victim of cyberbullying through the use of mobile applications was Rebecca Ann Sedwick, who committed suicide after being terrorized through mobile applications such as Ask.fm, Kik Messenger and Voxer.



This not only tells us that cyberbullying is disgusting....but enough is enough.



If you manage to be a 100 years old, remember this....don't be a cyberbully, stand up for what believe in. And maybe together we can put stop to bullying and cyberbullying once and for all.
