EFFECTS OF BULLYING
Most people know that bullying is wrong. Moreover, criticizing someone makes a bully feel good while the victimized feels low. With the advancement of internet, people now have even more opportunities to do cyber bullying. This includes sending crude pictures, posting fake web pages or tweeting unwanted messages. Cyber bullying has subsequently led to a rise in a completely new kind of bullying. One of the effects of bullying is that it can change the victim’s personality. It can cause people who are normally confident and happy to become self – conscious, shy and unsure. Additionally, victims of bullying may also become sad or depressed. Their confidence might completely disappear keeping them away from trying new things or trusting people. Once a person has been bullied, they may hesitate to participate in any opportunity given. Despite all the negative effects of bullying, there are even far more serious consequences. People are scared or depressed that they see no worth in themselves and no way out of their torment and seem to be in distress.
