A story about cyberbullying
by Kai Yi
Tracy was a shy and a
hardworking girl but was often being cyberbullied by her classmates through
social media. They often post nasty and totally untrue comments on facebook saying
that she was as fat as a pig and calling her names, etc. At first, she had tolerated with her
classmates’ behavior, but this had greatly affected Tracy’s self-esteem, and
also resulting in her cutting down on her diet. Once, Tracy’s mother had
enquired if she was facing any difficulties in school but Tracy lied that
everything was good. However, after a week’s time, Tracy’s classmates became bolder,
they started sending threatening messages, calling her untrue names and posting
comments that were totally fallacious to many of her social websites such as email,
facebook and her twitter accounts.
“Why am I being bullied for things that aren’t true?” “Why do
they detest me so much?” "Didn’t they share a thought on how I may feel?” “WHY? ”
Tracy thought, she was very hurt, demoralised and was at a loss of what to do.
Finally, after much thought, she decided to relate this torturous experience to
her mother…
