Online bullying

Last week we ended the class with a discussion about online bullying. A very interesting question was brought up and that was, is can the computer/internet be more hurtful than real life. Truthfully, both are very harmful if one cares about it enough. Someone in class said cyber bullying would not bother them at all since they would just make a different account or turn off the computer. That is an option, but for someone who is actually being cyber bullied, I don't think it would be that easy since they care a lot about the subject. It's as if your spouse just broke up with your and someone tells you to just get over it. Easier said then done and that further shows that the person who said that does not understand what the friend is going through.


Cyber bullying is tough and so is real life. Both can lead to someone's death, but whether one is worse than the other...well that is left up to each person
