I am really big about bullying, and I help the victims of bullies everyday in ROBLOX, and out. I make forums about how to avoid bullying, I am actually the #1 bullying helper in ROBLOX, well, I feel like it :3 because everyone comes to me when they are bullied.

Now, if you are like most American teens, or younger, then you are most-likely to visit a social networking site today. SNS (Social networking site) lead to cyberbullies. Cyberbullies are cowards, because they are not manly enough to say the stuff to your face. But sadly, online bullying is as just painful - or even worse - than bullying face-to-face.

First, cyberbullying can be anonymous: youth who are being cyberbullied may not even know who the bully is, or specifically why they are being targeted.

Second, the impact of cyberbullying can be wider-reaching than bullying done in person. The speed and breadth of the internet have permitted groups of youth to create websites just to make fun of other young people, to impersonate other teens on social media sites, and to circulate embarrassing photos, all within a matter of minutes.

Finally, cyberbullies can be teens who might not otherwise have engaged in bullying behaviors. It is often easier to be cruel when the bully is sheltered from their target’s responses which can over time include devastating consequences such as withdrawal from family and friends, depression, diminished performance in school and in the most severe cases, self-harming behavior and even suicide.

Today’s national media coverage of bullying often focuses on cases that come to an extreme and tragic end, with parents, schools and entire communities weighing in to express strong opinions about how to “deal with” the bullies, and wondering what, if anything could have been done to protect the “victim.” And even more often, parents and teachers and the community express surprise at the ordinariness of the youth who engaged in bullying behavior, and how unlikely it seemed that they would be involved in something so terrible.

Current research 4 shows that approaches to help prevent bullying behavior are essentially the same as those that will help youth withstand harassment. These approaches – which are closely linked to the Search Institute Developmental Assets, and include building strong and positive ties to family, peers and community, and fostering the values of empowerment and self-control, among others – seem to tell us that the needs of youth who react most dramatically to bullying, and those engaging in bullying behavior may in fact be the same.

Now if you actually read all this, you are awesome, and you truly want to stop bullying online and offline.

Everyday, something bad happens. Loved ones die, loose a $50 dollar bill, abused by parents/guardians, ect. So why do we make this all worse by treating eachother like garabage? Everyone in this world has a purpose, we are the masterpeice of a great creator, if you know what I'm talking about.

If you are being bullied - or even a bully yourself and you want to stop - then come to me, I will help you. Treat eachother the way you want someone to treat you. Or even a better saying: Treat someone the nice way, or don't talk to anyone at all :3

Some people say cyberbullying and bullying cannot be stopped, but if we all work together, and never give up, bullying and cyberbullying will be no fear in this world, ever again.

I know some people are rude on forums, and will probably say some rude stuff about this. But we will know that you are just another cyberbully that is trying to troll peole.

What is the purpose of this? I don't see why are you wasting your time doing this, nobody can stop online bullying or bullying in general. No matter how many people you recruit for this little crusade. People just need to calm down and not overreact because somebody they will never see calls them an idiot.

Just being cyberbullying and bullying is very common, it does not mean we have to accept it. We have ways to stop them, but we will never stop them if we have people like you going around saying that it will be never stopped.

It never will be stopped because the only things acting against bullies are absent-minded anti-bully crusaders like you

Also, saying that we are overreacting about bullying and cyberbullying, is not acceptable. Do you know hundreds of teen suicides happen everyday in this world over bullying? Have you ever heard of Amanda Todd? Or Megan Meier, Josh Pachenco or Ryan Halligan? Well all of them committed suicide over bullying, then we got your over there telling people not to "overreact." Unbelievable.

We are helping the people who are being bullied. You probably do not understand what it feels like to get bullied, but if you ever do, don't come crying to me for help. My kindness has worn off against people who think bullying will not be stopped.

"And terrorist attacks will never cease to exist, therefore NO money should be spent to protect USA's borders!

How's that for logic?"

Implying that these people are actually preventing bullying

"How are they not helping prevent bullying?

By advertising the adverse effects of bullying they can help educate people who may be bullying."

Because cyberbullying can simply be saying you don't like someone's name, all you need to do to label something as "bullying" is by simply "offending" someone on the internet, and don't say you've never done that because everyone has. Plus you're a WWC'er.
