Me and Cyberbullying
I chose this topic because even though i never have experienced cyber bullying, i think it is a big problem for students. This is why I want to create a presentation telling everyone the problem of cyber bullying. Cyber bullying is very popular, 1/3 of kids have claimed to do it more than once. That is only the people who decided to show themselves!
Some Things About Cyber Bullying
Cyber bullying means someone that is being bullied online. It occurs mainly to kids, and can be hard to spot. Often, somebody might send a message that they find harmless, but is insulting to the person he/she sends it to. Another problem is that after some thing is sent, it can very quickly be distributed to a wide audience. Also, 81% of people think that cyber bullying is easier to get away with than regular bullying.
Conclusion
81 percent of kids agree that bullying online is easier to get away with than regular bullying, and as much as 1/3 of kids have done it more than once! Cyber bullying can also make kids shy for years. Dr. Martyn WIld said,"Cyber-bullying is poised to turn into the biggest online concern already affecting up to 35% of all children" His words also show how big a problem this is. I also think that Cyber bullying should be taken care of in some way.
