Sl against Cyber bullying


Anti-Bullying Contract
Cyber bullying refers to Internet bullying. Cyber bullying is a form of
violence that can do lasting harm to people of all ages, but mainly
adolescents and teens. Bullying statistics show that cyber bullying is a
serious and growing problem. By being more aware of cyber bullying,
teens and adults can help to fight it.
Bullying has been around forever but cyber-bullying is different because
it lets a bully remain anonymous. It is easier to bully in cyberspace
than it is to bully face to face. With cyber-bullying a bully can pick on
people with much less risk of being caught.
Victims of cyber-bullying may
experience many of the same effects as children who are bullied in
person, such as a drop in grades, low self-esteem, a change in
interests, or depression.
