1. Cyberbullying Is Dangerous!

2. Experts say such online harassment is on the rise. And because it can happen anywhere, schools are faced with a dilemma: how to handle cyberbullying that takes place off campus. In recent years, states such as California and Illinois have passed laws allowing schools to punish kids for cyberbullying that occurs off school grounds(yohnak).

2.1. Because cyberbullyin relates to suicide and if people would just detach themselves they would be better off in the end.

2.2. A note from the author states that the wonders of the social web-the ability to browse pornography undetected, assume another identity in a chat room, stalk your ex-boyfriend's Facebook page 300 times a day without his ever knowing it-would be impossible without the gift of digital disguise. But so, too, might cyberbullying(yohnak).

2.2.1. This means that the web should be more blocked so that you can't just search random things and stalk people.

2.3. It can cause death.

2.4. A note from the author states that if you Detach the public persona from the person and he is free to come out to his friends in a chat room or start a political revolution in an oppressed country,but the will to sign off(yohnak).

2.4.1. This matters because if you detach yourself from the web or from chat groups and social media that you will be able to avoid getting bullied.

3. What makes cyber bullying particularly harmful and in the case of too many young people who have committed suicide, so deadly, is the nature and virulent reach of electronic medium(phillips).

3.1. A note from the author,What makes cyber bullying particularly harmful and in the case of too many young people who have committed suicide, so deadly, is the nature and virulent reach of electronic medium(phillips).

3.1.1. This makes me think that if the web was restricted that there would be less cyberbullying and there would not be so much of a problem with bullying.

3.2. A note from the author states that the reasons given by teens in focus groups were fear of restriction from electronic use, fear of being blamed or expectation of parents' overreactions(phillips).

3.2.1. This relates to the viewpoint because it tells you about how bullying needs to be stopped and you have to provide restrictions.

3.3. It can make the person getting bullied depressed.

3.4. Because it can cause suicide and it makes people depressed and it makes them feel like they are nothing.

4. Cyberbullying like any form of bullying is relational aggression. It is intended to make the victim feel frightened, humiliated, helpless and too often—hopeless. What makes cyber bullying particularly harmful and in the case of too many young people who have committed suicide, so deadly, is the nature and virulent reach of electronic medium.(cushing).

4.1. A note from the author is that some research exists indicating that the expansion of anti-bullying policies is making things worse(cushing).

4.1.1. This matters because if anti-bullying policies are just making things worst why have them?

4.2. A note from the author, only 40% have seen repeat occurrences. There's a huge gap between these single events and pervasive behavior and that gap is being exploited(cushing).

4.2.1. This means that there is a lot of reoccurring evidence that explains why cyberbullying is dangerous.

4.3. It can be resolved fast if you tell someone.

5. Cyberbullying Is A Problem That Is Too Overhyped!

5.1. Bullying is defined as agressive behavior and should have concinquences but it should not be a big issue(Phillips).

5.1.1. A note from the author,social media makes it easy for kids to connect with their peers anytime, anywhere. Unfortunately, some students use the internet to harass and shame their classmates(Phillips).

5.1.1.1. This makes me think that if we didn't have social media that we would have a way more peaceful life.

5.1.2. Because it does not always lead to death or suicide.

5.1.3. A note from the author, They are tormented online in ways that can make learning at school extremely difficult. Educators can and should respond to these incidents even if they occur away from the classroom(Phillips).

5.1.3.1. This connects to the viewpoint because it really describes why bullying can effect you were ever you are.

5.2. Because if we just focused more on the better things in life cyberbullying would not even have became a problem.

5.3. Because if there was more problems with cyberbullying it would be more hyped then it is but since cyberbullying is on the low its not so overhyped anymore.
