read an article about Amanda Todd’s story‚ I was shocked and felt how no girl should go through the sexual harassment and cyberbullying that Amanda experienced. Amanda was manipulated to flash her bare chest to a stranger in a video chat room‚ when she was in seventh grade. The same stranger haunted her through social media by creating fake accounts‚ and blackmailing her with the picture of her bare chest for years. I seriously cannot imagine the amount of terror and pain Amanda felt through those threats
