Summary 
Cyber bullying has began a social concern  everywhere. The consequences are very serious 
sometimes can lead to suicide. Technology and inaction with electronic devices have a huge impact on 
our daily lives. Internet and electronic devices can be used to bullying someone because it harder for them
to stand up for themselves through a screen. Over the past years since devices and media became such a
huge platform the bullying has gotten worse. However, with the media and devices the bullying is most 
the girls rather than boys. According to this article “  more than 80% of victims and bullies in school are also cyber victims and cyberbullies on the Internet (Giumetti & Kowalski, 2016; Olweus, 2013). Media and devices are a big part of the bullying. Cyber bullying and depression have become the main cause of 
suicide over the year however, the victim becomes to think of plans and desire to commit suicide because of the bullying being so hurtful they can’t take it anymore. Sometimes most of us use social 
media and internet to get away from the feeling of being alone and build a social relationship. School
bullying and cyber bullying go together because it can start at school but continue online and through 
texting  making the victim feel small. Bullying can be verbal or physical. Cyber bullying made the school 
bullying and suicide rate go up. Cyber bullying is a problem that needs to improve.

Reflect
I learn so much more about my topic that i didn’t know. I knew school bullying and 
cyberbullying go hand in hand but not to the max that our suicide rate doubled in the past couple
years. My opinion on this topic is so huge because it hasn’t been a topic brought up as much as it happens
our students, parents and staff need to be aware. My stand on this topic is that we need to take a stand
once and for all. I state that we should take a stand because last year we lost my cousin
Brenden Rich-Beckett to suicide he was sixteen year old he had his whole life ahead of him
he was great at track and football. He had a rough childhood with his parents
till my aunt got custody of him and his brother. My mom got his sister.
We know his childhood was getting to him and he was getting bullied at school.
We strongly believe cyber bullying also because he hid his phone a lot.
With depression and if someone is getting bullied sometime you will never know because they are so
good at hiding it. Bren you would never guess he would take his own life because every time
you seen him he would be laughing, joking and smiling with you when we find out it was the hardest
day not only did he kill himself we were getting ready to bury my 96 year old great grandfather  two days.
We kept him on life support for one week to see if he would wake up but we had to pull to plug.
To make it worse, he was born on my birthday two year after me and died on my baby sister birthday
nothing will be the same. If you are getting bullied or know someone that is being bullied tell someone
before it get worse rather it cyberbullying or at school even if it depression talk to someone get the help
you need. Don’t let you or a loved one be a victim stop the cycle.
