Online harassment - from a fake account to hateful slurs and death threats - is all began with the introduction of social media itself. However, this problem is growing at a slow pace. This abuse poses a great threat to the victim's private and social life. They keep feeling depressed, lost their well-paid jobs or even landlord force them to move out leaving them homeless at the end.
Online bullying can happen to any age group. However, it is common in adolescent and teen as they don't know how they are treated in online media. The major symptoms a child shows when they are bullying in social media are:
- Being upset and emotional while using Social Media
- Get nervous easily while receiving text and messages
- Unwilling to share information about online accounts
- Unexplained weight loss or weight gain, have headache or trouble in eating
- Suddenly became anti-social
- Making a passing statement about committing suicide
These are some of the symptoms that not only a child but adults also show. But bearing the pain in silence is not the option. Cyberbullying or harassment is a buzzword in the online platform. There are many laws that help you to report against them.
