Cyber bullying has been increasing over the years. This is due to the upgrading of technologies, which improves the easy access to much different electronic stuff, such as internets on the computers. As teenagers nowadays spend more time on the computers, this might be the reason for the rise of cyber bullies on the internet. It may seem that cyber bullying is a minor matter, but it actually does a much worse damage than normal bullying, as it can hurt the child’s inner confidence and courage mentally.
Cyber bullies bully people on the internet, because they feel that it is fun and cool, and the victim will not know who the cyber bully is. They might also think that this is just a joke on other people, and will not affect the victim’s emotions. But when the cyber bullies have succeeded, they feel satisfied, because they have shown that they are stronger than you. Over the long run, the victims of cyber bullying might suffer from pressure and stress that is caused by the threatening from the cyber bullies. And this may result in the victims going insane or even death, because they think that they have lost, therefore they have no more face to face other people.
Hence, schools should teach the students why they should not be doing this kind of thing, and how to handle the situation when they occur. So if they become the victims, they will know who to approach, like the school counselor, teachers, or parents.
Therefore, cyber bullying cannot be controlled by people, but it can be reduced by teaching students the right thing, so as to reduce the amount of innocent pupils going into depress situation, or death.
