Cyberbullying taking a toll on students

Ironic it may seem, it is the educated who tease and taunt others and it is the student community that is facing the brunt of cyberbullying that is having a drastic effect on their mental health and well-being. The internet has opened doors to endless communication and connection but it has a dark side: cyberbullying.

Cyberbullying has an ugly face, or a face that is hidden behind screens, fake accounts, and anonymous messages, making it even more harmful and far-reaching.

Cyberbullying can take many forms: spreading fake rumors, sending hurtful messages, sharing private photos or videos without consent, or posting offensive comments on social media platforms. What makes it more dangerous is that it can happen anytime, anywhere.
