Cyberbullying on Children
Keywords:
Children, Cyberbullying, Mental healthAbstract
The goal of this study is to know the perspectives of the
children that have experienced cyberbullying. The results
showed that the victims are aware of this problem. Upon
experiencing this they were distressed and treated unfairly
and the trauma they experienced was quite upsetting,
leading to despair; in the worst-case scenario, some young
people committed suicide as a result of the frustrations
brought on by cyberbullying, and their mental health was
also affected by this. The findings of this study would help
children be aware of this problem.
