Cyberbullying is when an individual torments, threatens, harasses, humiliates, embarrasses, or uses any other way to target another individual by using the internet or cells phones. Cyberbullying can lead to depression and even suicidal thoughts/suicide. Words can hurt people and we need to learn how to stop using technology to hurt others. People need to take a stand when someone is being tormented in social networks, emails, text messages, etc. If you know someone who is being cyberbullied you can always contact an adult such as teachers, principals, parents, or any adult who is trustworthy. Remember that being silent about cyberbullying is never the answer, instead voice your opinions when you think something is wrong.
