Yes, bullies are a growing problem because younger children are seeing more violent films and we are showing them how to hurt people physically and mentally. Reportings of people hurting or even killing people are reflecting on younger generations because they are looking up to the older children that are doing harm.

The problem of bullying seems to be pretty much a constant, unchanging aspect of human society, neither getting worse nor better. However, people who are bullied have been advised, by the "it get's better" campaign created by Adam Savage, that their own lives can get better; as they grow up, they will have more control of their own lives and will usually be able to get away from situations in which they are vulnerable to being bullied. So it is a mistake to succumb to despair, too early in life.

Why has bullying become a big problem in grade school?

Bullying was a big problem thousands of years before I was born, bullying was a big problem when I was in grade school, bullying will be a big problem thousands of years after I am dead. Nothing has changed, nothing will change. Bullying is a part of human nature. As long as we are humans, bullying will always be a big problem.What has changed is there has been an increasing awareness of the serious, sometimes irreparable, damage that bullying does to its victims. Often changing their entire lives in unanticipatable directions. When I was in grade school, being bullied was usually just considered a harmless right of passage, part of normal socialization and play! But "play" that affects you in such a way that the kids you felt were your best friends 15 minutes ago have suddenly become ugly terrifying nonhuman monsters that you MUST try to find some way to kill to protect yourself; is not harmless! (I'm sorry if the bluntness of that last statement upsets you, but that was my personal experience with bullying; many times. I hated what bullying could do to my mind more than I hated the bullies doing it. Fortunately for both me and the bullies, I never did find some way to kill any of them)Perhaps with luck that awareness may allow some control of the problem of bullying, but I very much doubt that effect will be very big.

What happens to the people that do the cyber bullying?

They would at least be blocked from whatever site they are using once the bullying has been reported and verified. There is the problem that not much is done to stop it, this is why the bullies carry on and continue to ruin others lives. Until it is made illegal it will be hard to stop.
