A Close Look At Cyber Bullying In AMERICA

Posted September 30, 2010 by admin for Global Grind Staff

Why has cyber bullying taken over our social network universe? Facebook, Twitter and Myspace were created to stimulate interactions between friends and family that are seperated by city, state, country and continent.

Unfortunately, the dark matter (i.e. cyberbulling) will grow with it. Children and teenagers are being bullied online at an alarming rate.
