If you are interested in learning more about cyberbullying, here are some of
the articles or website that have helped me
learn more on the subject. First, we have “StopBulling.gov” which is an
official website of the United States that educates
you about what cyberbullying is, what are the sings, and how you can prevent and help those you
love. The second article that I wanted to recommend is the "Pew ResearchCenter" which discusses in depth the
percentage of children who have received
some kind of bullying growing up. The third web page that I want to recommend
is “The Bark Blog for Connected families”, which sole responsibility is
to help children across America who are affected by cyberbullying, sexual

why I recommend this article, it is because they have helped me become more knowledgeable about cyberbullying,
what effects it has, who is more at risk and
how I can prevent it. Furthermore, it
has also help me understand what society is doing in order to help those who
are being victimize online.

In the video she also mentions that she has talk to the school several times, but no action has been taken. From this video, we can clearly see the effects bullying has on both the mind and body. It shows what children and people are willing t...
