Bullying is behaviour that hurts someone else. It includes name-calling, hitting, pushing, sometimes it means to spread rumours or threaten somebody. It can happen anywhere – at school, at home, or online. Cyberbullying is bullying that takes place through electronic technologies such as mobile phones, apps, social network websites, or online forums. Cyberbullying is hurtful because it makes victims feel hopeless, helpless, powerless, and alone all at the same time. Children and teens who are cyberbullied often feel ashamed and guilty too, as they are made to believe that it is their fault they are being bullied/ as they think that they deserve it for some reason. There are many reasons why kids and teens become cyberbullies. However, cyberbullies usually have some sort of insecurity. To protect their egos and feel superior, they make others feel bad about themselves. Some cyberbullies see it as a means to gain popularity and others do it to feel powerful or escape their own problems. At times, cyberbullies themselves may be bullying victims so they prey on other people to feel better about themselves.
