A Story On Cyberbullying
I know someone personally who had a problem with cyberbullying. This person was constantly getting harassed, tormented on a day to day basis about the way they looked, how they spoke and their appearance. Everyday i would tell them to just ignore them and if you dont let what they say get to you then they wont bother you. Then I told them that if that didn't work then you need to stick up for your self and let them know you are not playing. But they told me that it wouldn't work because they had tried ignoring and they tried to sticking up for themselves. I told them that if they needed help i would help them and solve problems. They told me no and that she didn't want me to tell my mom. I respected her wishes and didn't tell my mom. But the bullying started getting worse and by then I had to tell my mom because their self esteem was lowering and days at a time i did not see them at school or outside. Once I told my mom things went into effect. First my mom , talked to the person parent. Then, there parent called the school to take care of things. Once the people were caught , things started going back to normal. Yea they were mad at me at first, but when the problem was over the person thanked me and we all went on with life.
