How Cyberbullying Affects Children

Cyberbullying affects children who are different, who are not fashionable or who are part of a social or racial minority. However, most of the victims of cyberbullying are teenage girls. To be able to be called cyberbullying there must be a minor of both sides, or that at least the aggressions have been instigated by a minor against another minor. At the moment in which some adult is the aggressor, this offense is called cyberstalking. The laws that sanction cyberbullying or cyberstalking are implemented in the same way for any racial group, since this technological phenomenon affects individuals of all races in the same way. From an adult perspective, you can make the mistake of seeing it as innocent or unimportant jokes, but in reality it
can have serious consequences for the development of a child, leave important consequences and even cause very extreme cases of suicide if not controlled in time. Basically, the laws created to penalize, and prevent cyberbullying are aimed at the protection of young adolescents. The majority of cases of network users are between 15 and 24 years old. There have been cases in which some children have caused the death of others. There have also been cases in which children commit suicide by being involved in a cyberbullying incident. Normally, cyberbullying does not consist of a single transmission or message, although it can also be a single threat of death or physical harm.
