After referring to the article - "The Rise of Cyber Bullying", I think that more and more people especially teenagers are abusing technologies and the devices invented.
As time pass, technologies are advancing and as technologies advance, more devices are invented and upgraded. Some examples of these devices are cell phones, computers and many more... People often use these devices to communicate and these devices make communication much easier. However, with the increasing number of devices and gadgets, more and more teenagers I beginning abusing them, sending messages of junks and threats to disturb people. As a student, I think that the pressure implied on us in school by our teachers and parents are already very huge. In addition of the stress by these messages of threat, students often cannot accept such stress and this leads to committing suicide, under performing in exams and having mood swings. According to the article, there are already quite a few numbers of teenagers committing suicide after being "cyber-bullied". I think that the bullies are not only wasting their time, they are also harming other people and hurting them emotionally and physically.
People often use the computer and access to the internet to search for information, communication and making documents. However, Students and teenagers are using messengers such as MSN to communicate and make friends. Though you can make friends, you would never know who you are talking to. Through the internet, cyber bullying is being carried out.
I think that these technologies should be used properly instead of being abused. I also think that the bullies could also do more fruitful things. The virtual world may seem fun and safe, but they are not.
Therefore, I think that people should not only refrain from using the internet too much and the bullies should not carry on on wad they are doing. These would definitely reduce the casualties caused by cyber bullying.
