Example of someone bullying a student at school?

Cyber bullying is when there is a person or more saying mean things to you over the internet for example Twitter, Facebook and Ask.Fm, or when someone is talking dirty or sexually to you over the internet on the same sources given above.

A cyber-bully can involve sending insulting and threatening text messages through communication devices like cellphones or PCs or send offensive emails or messages on platforms like MSN and Yahoo Messenger.

Cyber-bullying can also take place in MMPORG situations. For example, in a game like Grandano Espada, a higher level player can deliberately attack a "newbie" or someone much weaker in strength than him or herself. In the game above, when a character gets "killed", so long as it is below level 50, it will spawn back to life again at the place when it was killed after 60 seconds. Then, the cyber bully strikes again, killing the just spawned character. This cyber bully repeatedly does this and as a result, prevents the newbie from playing. It is akin to a school yard bully who waits for a grade 1 child to sit on a swing and then pushes him off into the sand. And then, he waits again for the child to get back up before pushing him back into the sand again.

Hey, my name is Kylie. I lost my boyfriend to cyberbullying. He was in a gang of course. And these gang members had found him on myspace. Kept telling him he wasnt going to live to see his children grow. And he needed to watch his back everytime he walked around or drove around somewhere. He got really scared one and day and called me up and asked to speak to his daughter. Of course she was only 2 at the time and couldn't speak much languege. But knew that it was DAddy on the phone. So I put her on and he told her he loved her and he will see her soon. Then he told me the very same thing. But more. He said he didn't want to see me cry. And he asked if I would love him always and forever. Of course I said yes. And that's when I heard the gun shots. He shot himself. And i drove straight to his house and found him. It's a really serious thing.

One example is;"do you know how stupid you are?" there are LOTS of other ones, so hurtful that they may end up as a reason to suicide. It is not a game. People may die of grief from this, so I ask of you; if you see cyberbullying, PLEASE contact a vandal patrol, or supervisor IMMEDIATELY. We don't want any cyberbullying on this site, EVER.

How can you use bullying in drama?

I have been involved in drama and theatre for a long time, so I think I can help. Although there are many different approaches, here is my advice:

1) Start with a person on stage or entering the stage. This should be a normal character, with no particularly outstanding traits, so that it can be relatable to the audience. This could be made into two people, or a larger group.

2) Next, have the bully enter the stage. This could be a physically threatening bully, a verbal bully, or any other figure that poses as a threat in anyway. Get creative with what the bully wants, how he plans to get it, and the reactions of others on stage.

3) Have him bully the "normal character(s)" on stage. The conflict should be established almost immediately after the bully is introduced. It should be clear what kind of relationship the bully and the victim have and how the victim feels about being picked on. Don't be hasty to end this conflict. It creates tension, which is a great tool to have in a scene.

4) If you choose to have the bully threaten the victim physically, do not let the conflict escalate into violence. Unless both actors are trained in stage combat, this should not be attempted.

5) Depending on the requirements of the scene, it can end in several different ways. If the bully succeeds, you should show the victim afterwards reflecting how he/she feels about it. If the victim succeeds, you should also show him/her afterwards reflecting on how he/she overcame the bully. If an authority figure enters to break it up, maybe show the bully reflecting on his wrongdoings. These emotional factors will bring a good element to your scene.

Do bullies bully because of their psychological problems?

Many people have endured traumatic events in their lives that could possibly cause them to bully others. Not to use this as an excuse for people to bully others, but a lot of time, there are personal reasons behind the bullying. Whether it be family problems, sexual or physical abuse, or some sort of traumatic even that occurred in their lives, there is typically more to the story. Also, when a person suffers from an inferiority complex, they tend to "step on others to make themselves higher." In this mentality, they feel better about themselves when others look worse than them.

Why can child bullies grow into adult bullies?

Child bullies grow into adult bullies because nobody stopped them when they were younger and told them it was wrong. They often start as children who may have been exposed to a violent childhood (e.g., being abused as a kid or watching their parents abuse each other). They then think this is the norm and right so they grow up thinking they should beat up their girlfriends/boyfriends. Because nobody stands up to them, they go though life thinking their behavior is normal. They learn that intimidation works and that it gives them what they want.
