the article was heartwarming and informative. It explained how cyberbullying takes place and the serious consequences of the bullies actions to the victim. It also tells us that bullying can be harmful not just a joke. people would go out of their way and physically cost harm to the victim even if they knew they would be in trouble. it also tells us that friends can backstab you and turn on you and bully and even cause harm to you. cyberbullying is also much more common then we though, its just that the victims are afraid of speaking out. cyberbullying is also quite common especially in schools, telling us that its students are the ones writing mean stuff rather then adults which is surprising to most. in conclusion, cyberbullying can happen anywhere anytime and can be harmful sometimes even fatal.

i dont know if it counts i just type. i play a online game and everytime we are in a theather of conquest there would always be some drama with each allience. some people would go and do some actions that the other would find dishonourable or coward tactics and would call out the person in city chat. many people would join in arguing with each other and calling each other names sometimes it even involves physical violence irl. how it always ends is that the person insulting and the person being insulted the respective allience they would belong to would most liekly hate eachother forever with a very slim chance of getting along in the future unless the members change.

I obviously cannot solve this matter by myself as it would be 1 person against multiple people so I will report it to the school to help with this cyberbullying case. But then while its going on, I try to comfort the victim and tell them to try to ignore the mean comments.

The article helped us us to understand more about what is cyberbullying and how it affects someone. It tells us that cyberbullying is serious, and it is not a joke and people need start taking cyberbullying seriously. Cyberbullying can lead to depression, and it creates long-lasting trauma to the victim. Usually, the bully has their own problems, and they take it out on the victim. Cyberbullying is starting to be more common especially in secondary schools. Many people like the victim, keep quiet and does not do anything due to them bring scared of what the bully might do. To conclude, cyberbullying should not be treated as a joke and don't be a bystander, most importantly don't be the bully.

Yes. we have encountered someone being cyberbullied before. For example, once I saw a video of someone in my school being trended. The bully has trended a girl by using her picture and saying that it was cringe. Once the victim saw it, she has cried. She was hurt really bad, so she had told her mum about it. Her mum talked to her and she opened up. Her mum told the teachers. This also spread around school and thus, the teachers were informed. The bully was confronted, and she was punished.

As a responsible Woodlander, I would report this incident to teachers to inform them about the situation. Then I would comfort the victim and check on him everyday to see if he is okay/ doing well, and ask him to talk to a trusted adult, if needed. I would set up an anti-bullying movement to take down the bullying post.
