Cyberbullying

[honeychile]

KSAViolet, I applaud your aunt & uncle. While the school punishment seems harsh, maybe that's what it took to send a message to the students. Too bad it was your cousin.

I'd just like to throw one more thing into the equation: cyberbullying someone who's 14-15 is a lot different than someone who's 24-25. But in all aspects, it does add a layer to the being bullied onion.

I will say that GCers amuse themselves in various ways and GC is not that important as to let it have a potentially lasting mental and emotional impact on you.

No need to repeat a bunch of stuff that's been said, but I agree with all those who said bringing real life to the Net and vice versa is crossing the line.

I'm kind of surprised that this thread hasn't Beetlejuiced in shadows of the past...
