Cyber bullying is a form of indirect bullying but using technology or online.
Cyber bullying is as bad and hurtful as any other form of bullying.
This can include:
sending bad messages on social media. (Facebook, snapchat, WhatsApp)
Group chats online or through an app encouraging other people to post nasty comments about you.
Being unkind when using online gaming chat
Text messages on a mobile
Prank calls
Passing your number out to other people and encouraging them to be unpleasant to you
Sending you insults or swearing at you using the chat facility on games.
Sending you nasty voice or video messages.

3. Why people do it? Some people might do it for attention.
Their parents use rude words and they think they can use the same words when talking to people.
One of the main reasons people cyber bully is because they are getting bullied themselves and they take their anger out on other people.
Some people do it because they feel like it gives them more power.
They think it is a joke.
They are pretending to be tough online.
They can’t be seen
