EXCLUSION!

Most young people in this generation have cellular devices. The teens who do not have an internet available device, are usually left out of the group. The ones who do, often make fun of or hurt the person that does not have a phone or laptop, without them knowing.

HARASSMENT!

Harassment is usually through texting. The bully will send threatening messages over and over again saying things such as, I will kill you, sleep with one eye open and mean and cruel sayings. Sometimes they will post what they sent to hurt one another on a social networking site. That can easily hurt and affect peoples lives.

OUTING! Outing is when somebody

prints out what the other person said, including personal and sexual information. They either send it around or post it on Facebook or other networks. The smallest kind of outing is reading the text messages to another person witch can cause psychological damage. This very often and is not treated very responsibly.

CYBER STALKING ! Cyber stalking are sent through email or text

messages. It is a type of harassment. Sometimes it can lead to real stalking witch is lack of personal space and always having the feeling of someone watching you.

MASQUERADING!

This is when a cyberbully pretends to be someone they are not. They can create fake usernames and accounts to bully you. The bullies do this because it is harder to get caught for threats.

FLAMING!!! Flaming is usually in chat rooms over text

messaging or e-mails. They speak with capitals, witch means shouting. For example a girl had a fight with her friend over a guy. The next day the girls friend printed out the conversation and made it look like she wrote mean things

online. When ever you use MSN Messenger, Instagram, you are using a nickname. Everyone who uses a social networking site or anything online, You use pseudonyms. This can be very helpful yet used in a mean matter.
