    Bullying exists everywhere! I like this article because it provides ways for an anti-bullying environment. At some point in time everyone has whiteness someone being bullied, has been bullied personally, or has been the bully. Its a tragic subject that can lead individuals to suicidal attempts and depression. How long will it take before people realize this matter is crucial especially in educational environments, social media, and even in politics.

    I just found out that my wife is pregnant a week ago and this is one of my greatest concerns as a soon to be parent. No one should have to go to school and be open to abuse. Great article and I appreciated the ways that it states to make safe environments.

    This is such a common topic and has been for so many years. Bullying has been around for so long and now that social media is extremely popular it seems to make it worse. We have to do all we can to prevent this due to so many students committing suicide because of such extreme bullying.

    As a parent of a bullying victim, I feel there is much that can be fixed when dealing with this issue. the only thing you can do as a parent is talk to the administration and after that, your hands are tied. They are the ones that talk to the student and the student's parent. The only notification you get is that they had a meeting. In the meantime, your child is being retaliated against, their self-esteem continues to deteriorate and their schoolwork suffers. I wish there could be a more proactive approach. There came a time that I didn't get any communication until I sent an email to the entire school staff, Principal, and Superintendent.

    Its definitely an issue that far too often is overlooked. I am not a parent, and can only imagine how parents feel when their son or daughter is a victim of bullying. The issue definitely needs to be addressed, no one should have to attend school worried or concerned about how their day is going to go. It is very saddening, and disheartening.

    I feel like bullying has become more and more of an issue over the years. It is sad to see what is going on and I would like to see more schools implement programs to stop it.

    Bullying as gotten bigger over the years especially dealing with how big social media is getting. I wish school and adults would help stop this issue because it is always overlooked.

    With mental health issues becoming more prevalent in today's society. One has to wonder if it might be linked to the ever growing social media world we live in. With many studies speculating that social media might be the driving force behind our mental health pandemic.

    I personally do think that social media does play a roll in today's mental health pandemic, whether the impact is big or small. Mental health is something I believe to be very important & I wish everyone took it more seriously.
  • dan2195433 on 07 Sep 20
     
    I agree with Ash. As a race, humans tend to emulate and learn from each other, and has been proven by examining cultures and societies. With social media, anybody can "learn" behaviors, thoughts, or even actions from anybody. With this in mind, what do you think will happen to future generations on social media if they were, for example, consistently exposed (and as a result desensitized) to something like violence?

    This is a great topic and a great find, social media has been directly linked to depression.
  • ayeager7152 on 08 Sep 20
     
    Sadly this world has truly become run by social media and the input of people we have never, and will never, meet. The importance a "like" or "comment" has now definitely leads to declining mental health statuses. Some people are so based on the likes that their entire world would crumble. Companies pay people purely based on their likes and follower count and the power they hold over their viewers.

    Mental health is a really big deal, especially nowadays. Our predecessors commonly pushed down or ignored their mental health issues, but it's even worse for people today due to social media and other platforms. People today are becoming more mindful of social issues such as mental health and I think that's a really big deal.

    I also think social media plays a big part in mental health issues in todays society.

    For 3 or more hours day over 40% of girls and 20% of boys. The socials that are popular would be twitter, snapchat, Instagram, and Facebook.

    I believe there might be a link between mental health problems and social media especially the impact it has on some peoples lives

    Social media has really impacted adolescents and young adults in many ways. Mental health problems have sprung because of social media. Social media has its positives but it has made a lot of people see themselves in a bad light and view themselves as imperfect when in real life they are perfect.

    this article is an interesting one to say the least. may people are affected by social media but young adults are the most affected. this article shows how young minds are most affected by these media outlets.
  • sim2128554 on 02 Feb 21
     
    I would definitely agree with the article as it claims the correlation between time spent on social media and the symptoms of anxiety and depression. I likes how they referenced how abstaining from it can result in higher levels of happiness.

    Smoking in Public Places - it's about rights too It's popular to ban smoking in public places, but there are a lot of issues about rights that need to be considered. We also need to consider what a "public place" is and whether the government has any business regulating private affairs and personal choices in places owned and managed by private parties.
