Cyberbullying
With millions of people being bullied every day, cyber-bullying is in fact a problem that has been going on for more than a decade. It is like a spreading virus that has no cure. People cannot avoid talking about other people’s lives in the internet whether it is a celebrity, a public figure or even a nobody. Everyone can experience bullying and verbal torture online. The effect on every individual varies and sometimes, when people cannot take it anymore, the bullying results into a serious mental condition like severe anxiety and depression, sometimes suicide.
Nowadays, there are many other platforms a bully can stand on. Furthermore, bullies are no longer defined as they were in the classical sense mentioned above. Today, bullies show themselves as adults preying on children, bosses preying on employees, and even grown adults pushing their peers around, if only emotionally and not physically. And these bullies can often do so behind an invisible cloak known as the internet. Emotional bullying can be just as harmful as physical bullying, if not more so, and it is most often accomplished via the internet.
But, there are some things that you can do to prevent bullying and cyber bullying in general. Awareness is the key to preventing lifelong scars or worse – suicides. It is a daunting task, but it can be done. Together we can make a difference in the lives of those being bullied and maybe even in the lives of the bullies themselves.
Mediums of Cyber-Bullying
Mobile Phones and Smartphones – Mobile phone users can spread viral texts to virtually bully someone. Smartphone users can participate in internet bullying such as leaving insulting comments, posting images, video and audio.
E-mail – Cyber bullies send harassing e-mail messages and threat to someone.
Social Networking Sites – One of the most popular medium to bully someone online. People use social networking websites like Twitter and Facebook to degrade someone’s personality in form of image, audio, video or texts.
Blogs – People create personal webpages called blogs to express feelings and thoughts. This can also be abused by literally post something that will ruin someone’s reputation. Embarrassing photos and videos can be also posted by these “blogger bullies”.
Forums – Forums are meant for discussion, and that also includes discussing someone else’s life. They leave offensive feedback and unnecessary arrogant comments to the person being discussed in a forum thread. Cyber-bullying can also occur when two people have arguments in a certain thread and throw insults and rude comments to each other.
