Cyberbullying is like reality bullying except the fact that it's more hurtful. Once you're on the net, there are so many ways a bully can spread stuff around like emails spreading rumors about you, etc. There's also IM messaging, the bully's message gets spreaded faster that way and it will eventually get to the victim or the bully confronts the victim directly with the message.
whatever happened to "sticks and stones", man? when people lash out with words the only thing that gets hurt is ones ego. when people lash out with fists, rocks, clubs, or knives it's physical pain and chances are you're going home with cuts, bruises and a black eye or possibly worse..maybe a broken bone. yeah, I know that emotional pain can last a lot longer than physical pain, but that really depends on how much you allow whatever is said to bother you. and it also depends GREATLY on who it's coming from. some idiot bully on the web isnt going to hurt my feelings at ALL with whatever he/she says no matter who he says it to as opposed to say if my lover said something hurtful to me. because my lovers opinions carry a lot more weight than some idiot net bully I dont give a damn about.
