Cyberbullying is something that takes some mental effort to fully grasp. This is a form of bullying that takes place on electronic platforms such as mobile phones, laptops, and tablets.

As more and more young people spend most of their time online, cyberbullying has reached new heights. It has almost become a rite of passage. Teenagers typically fall into one of two categories: perpetrators or victims. Cyberbullying has been recognized as a serious issue just recently. Unfortunately, opinions remain divided as to whether or not this constitutes bullying. Looking at the facts and statistics, one can draw their own conclusions. Cyberbullying is a serious global issue that impacts far too many people of all ages. The following are facts one needs to know about cyberbullying:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cyberbullying Research Center estimates that 27 percent of teens and 15 percent of tweens have been cyberbullied at some point, based on surveys of more than 25,000 students conducted since 2002.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cyberbullying can take various forms, all of which are detrimental. Harassment, the distribution of naked images, the promotion of self-injury or suicide, and the fabrication of accusations that another person has reported troublemakers to authorities are all examples of this. The victim of jealous cyberbullying might, for instance, be harassed because she has a relationship with a popular boy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Posting racial or religious slurs is another form of cyberbullying that has been documented. Cyberbullying can sometimes take the form of “doxing,” in which the bully publicly discloses private information about the victim, such as his or her address, phone number, or Social Security number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
