Young people and teens are more of a victim to
Cyberbullying, they are usually at an age where they get influenced by others
around them and where they are in the process of learning about certain aspects
of life and this learning process shapes them into the human beings that they
become later on in their life. Many incidents and experiences in childhood and
teenage make people what they are in the future.
The many such experiences/incidents that affect a person
into becoming what they are in the future include Cyberbullying, which is
harassment or harm done with the use of technology.
Many students who are bullied online or verbal hesitate to
tell others about what is happening to them because they think that if the word
gets out, they would sound as weak and incapable of dealing with such petty
issues on their own. But what they don’t know is that Cyberbullying can affect
them to a great extent mentally.
Cyberbullying can make a person frustrated in their life; it
can also make them go in depression. Most suicides in teenage occur due to
issues such as cyberbullying. Students start to be socially aloof from others
and they usually face poor grades. Cyberbullying can also make a person use
drugs in order to feel mentally stable. Cyberbullying can also create a fear in
a person’s mind; they may feel that they are not safe largely because they have
faced threats online by a person they know or an anonymous. In an extreme case, Cyberbullying can lead a
person to commit suicide because they believe that they are incapable of
dealing with these mental issues or suffer the humiliation.
Therefore Cyberbullying is very alarming and should be dealt
with.
Can you think of other ways Cyberbullying can affect a
person?
