Bullying is a major act that is increasing among our adolescents today, and it is something we must act against, as it not only damages the self-esteem of young adolescents, but in most cases severe depression can lead to suicide or severe depression, leading to drug use. Bullying is not only limited to the real world, but also to the virtual world online, in a form known as "cyberbullying". “Cyberbullying” occurs when a child or adolescent is threatened, harassed, humiliated, or embarrassed by another person using the Internet, primarily social media or cell phones. The application of the Internet to the modern world has made it easy to people harass others without even having to face-to-face, and with the increase in technology, there is no doubt that cyberbullying will increase. For this reason, I believe it is important to educate people about cyberbullying because it will help prevent it from occurring. This would encourage victims to speak up for themselves and ask for help, and would make bullies think twice before attempting to bully someone. It is very easy to harass someone via a social network because 93% of young people aged 12 to 17 were online in 2008 (Lenhart, Purcell, Smith, & Zickuhr, 2010). Ask.fm, a leading social network focused on cyberbullying, has been linked to over nine teen suicides since its inception. The founder of Ask.fm, Mark Terebin, blamed the mass media and the site's users themselves for the suicides: “The mass media is knocking on the wrong door. You need to go deeper to find the root of a problem. It's not about the site; the problem concerns education, moral values ​​which have recently been devalued. Ask.fm is simply a tool that helps people communicate with each other, like any other social network, you know...... middle of paper... that will cause regrets (Stopcyberbullying.org, 2014). Are there laws that prevent cyberbullying, but parents and schools must also play a role. Parents need to keep up with their children's academic performance and make sure they are not being bullied. If they are, they should inform the police and/or the school. The school must warn students about cyberbullying and its consequences and, if necessary, should also expel a bully. In conclusion, with the expansion of social networking technologies and the Internet, cyberbullying is becoming more and more serious. Victims need to know that they are not alone and that they should not give in to a bully's behavior. Cyberbullying is fueled by technology and will only get worse as technology becomes more widespread, so we must act quickly on this dangerous global problem before it's too late.
