    Many social media users experience cyber-bullying. It's sad to say that it's a common and fairly easy thing to do and there should be more movements to stop it, but when there's people like celebrities doing it, who have millions of followers, there isn't an initiative or example to follow that promotes the cessation of cyber-bullying.

    Cyber-bullying is definitely an issue that needs to be discussed. Many online platforms don't adequately deal with bullying. Bullying can also lead to suicide. An example of this I believe is the suicide trend seen on some social media sites where teenagers primarily spend their time on such as Tumblr.

    I was glad to see a topic on cyber bulling it is a huge issue due to the fact that we are always on electronic divides. I recently just watched a movie on the subject the other night on Netflix. In the movie the young girl told both her parents and the school that she was being harassed and the school did nothing to help. The young girl ended up committing suicide.

    I think that cyber bullying is certainly a big issue. A lot of people may not even know that they are cyber bullying. You can see all over the internet people making fun of other people, even if it seems harmless. Some people don't realize that this can affect someone tremendously. They don't think about what they are putting online before they post it.

    People are too afraid too confront others, so they go online and make fun of them instead. When we are behind our phones or computers we feel a lot more comfortable and don't think much about it. Cyber bullying is wrong and hurts others emotionally.

    I am also glad that this was an article posted. This is such a growing issue, and has been for sometime. It's extremely unfortunate that school are part of this, and when these children go home they can't find solace because of the internet and all the social apps created.

    Childhood obesity can cause a kids mental health to go bad. It is very common for a child to get made fun of by other children because of their weight. The negativity the child is receiving will soon result in a low self esteem, depression, and more.

    Many homeless people who live out on the streets are victims of mental disorders such as schizophrenia, depression, and bipolar disorder. People who are mentally ill and homeless are among the hardest to treat, and government spending on homeless programs is expected to rise.

    This post actually hits close to home for me, seeing as i am a psych major and i feel the same way about our homeless population. Many of them are made fun of or accused of being on drugs but what they do not realize is that many of them are acting that way because they are not on the medication that they require to function at a normal level.

    This article really opens my eyes a bit about homeless people. I mainly believe that homeless people at times are just helpless and put themselves in a position that they cant return from, but this article says otherwise. It goes to show that not all of these homeless people are completely doomed, just some of them need to proper medical assistance to get them back on the right track and back into reality.

    School bullying prevention tips. The website includes expanded information on cyber bullying, how to assess situations, and how to get involved. Unfortunately, bullying has evolved into a community involved issue and not just a parenting issue.

    This is a topic that I feel strongly about. I always felt sick to my stomach seeing any type of bullying while I was growing up going to school. I believe that the consequences to students who bully, need to harsher than they are.

    My wife is a kindergarten teacher and sees "bully" characteristics in her students at such a young age. It is an ongoing issue that I feel most schools disregard even though they have "anti-bullying" rules. It is a scary issue as it not only negatively affects students' academics and school attendance, but also their quality of life. There is also the issue of cyberbullying which allows the bullies to hide their identity and messages being sent via the Internet.

    I like that this article gives almost a list of what to look for and how to intervene. My wife teaches fifth grade at a public school and every time I walk down the halls I see some form of bullying but am unsure what to do. I usually say something to the kids, but then always wonder if I am overstepping my role because I'm not a teacher or the other student's parent. Also, I ask myself "could I get in trouble if I had to intervene?".

    Bullying has became a bigger issue than people realize it is, it is sad to see kids get hurt. I like how it gives a list and how to deal with the matter for the children.

    There are always anti-bullying rules, but how effective are they when students feel they can't come forward? I think there should be more focus on teaching students how to treat each other and that they should intervene if they see someone being harrassed.

    At the end of the day, bullying is going to keep going until there are more kids stopping it than surrounding the first whipping their phones out to record. Everyone knows deep down that being a bully isn't fun, but who is going to stop that bully? Who is going to make him feel like the dumb one for picking on someone younger than him? That is how you stop bullying.
