School should be a place to go and receive information that should help young men and women be more successful in life. School is also a place where people should feel as safe as possible around them, to let children know that they are safe and that they will not be hurt, mocked or dehumanized. In particular, children feel violated because of an old problem known as bullying. Bullying is known to cause harm to children at school; not only in their studies, but also in their social life. Now that technology has taken a new turn in today's society, there is a new form of bullying known as cyberbullying. Cyberbullying is defined as the use of modern technology by an individual or group to deliberately embarrass or intimidate others. repetitive and hostile manner. Specific examples of cyberbullying include anonymous phone calls, abusive emails, theft of identity information, and harassment via instant messaging devices, social networks, media, and text messages (Li, 2006). The most common relationship problems result in breakups (41%), envy (20%), intolerance (16%), and regrouping (14%) (Hoff & Mitchell, 2008). Students aged 12 to 16 cannot handle social tensions and schools have a responsibility to teach children to manage tensions in a positive way (Hoff and Mitchell, 2008). It is important that not only do schools help students increase positivity, but parents should find solutions to help teenagers be more aware of their problems at work. The use of technology and the Internet can become dangerous if parents do not restrict certain things and have guidelines on what their children do...... middle of paper ......, and there hasn't been much done against cyberbullying to stop it. Technology will only develop faster and more suicides and depression will occur. Something should be done to avoid the worst. Works Cited Bhat, CS (2008).
