What is the difference between cyber-bullying and harassment? Nothing: Cyber-bullying is harassment. It is another way to harass students, and it has an adverse effect on the school society. Cyber-bullying should be prohibited to lower student depression and improve positive reception. I am foremost against cyber-bullying.

Cyber-bullying is harassment. 58.35 of school difficulties are bullying and harassment. 2 out of 5 of the victims of cyber-bullying commit suicide for the biased judgment and negative peer pressure. Cyber-bullying is a form of harassment. It has something to do with someone who is being mistreated with threats, and it violates the school policy. My dad agrees cyber-bullying should be prohibited. He says cyber-bullying is just another virus plaguing the student body. As you can see, cyber-bullying is harassment.

Cyber-bullying is another way to harass students, and it has an adverse effect on school society. Cyber-bullying causes more problems in the school. Absentees will increase because of the feeling of fear and insecurity, and grades will begin to decrease drastically because the constant threats will race through their every thought. I have a friend who transferred in from another school, two months being there and she received a threat from a classmate that doesn’t like the way she looked. She took it way too seriously, and began cutting her arms every day until she slipped and almost killed herself. This would not have happened if that classmate had never sent her that threat, she would not be in the hospital right now. As you can see, cyber-bullying is another was to harass students, and it has an adverse effect on school society.

Cyber-bullying should be prohibited to lower student depression and improve positive reception. Doing this would be justified because students will be able to focus better without the dreadful pressure on their shoulders. Students will be able to think more positive about them, helping raise their self-esteem to boost their confidence. It would be fair because they would be able to feel like they’re normal, not hurt and rolled up into a ball in a corner of the room. They will be in control of their own lives, and they will be able to make their own choices without hesitation. As you can see, cyber-bullying should be prohibited in order to lower student depression and improve positive reception.

Cyber-bullying is harassment, but what kind of harassment? Cyber-bullying would supposedly be verbal harassment, but verbal harassment is spoken. Verbal is through the mouth, but words from the mouth can be written onto paper or in text messengers as a threat. Only 2 out of 5 victims commit suicide. However, if you think about it mathematically, try taking 2 out of every 5 students from the entire school population, which would be 1346 students. As you can see, cyber-bullying is verbal harassment.

As you can see, there is no difference between harassment and cyber-bullying. It should be prohibited to lower student depression and improve positive reception. Cyber-bullying is just another way to harass students, and create an adverse effect on the student body. Cyber-bullying is harassment, and I am foremost against cyber-bullying!


(Sigh) ... All right, let me get this straight. This essay- as my teacher wanted it- is completely fiction. All this crap I had to write was all made up because... we're practicing for the WASL (Washington Assessment of Student Learning). If you have any complaints, I don't mind, but I will keep this on here, whether anyone likes it or not. Why it's in the humorous section? I think it's humorous of me, some punk freshman, thinking I can write an essay after only learning 15 minutes of it.
