Thanks to technology, cyberbullying is a new form of bullying that uses email, websites, mobile texts, instant messaging, and discussion groups to threaten, intimidate, and terrify victims.
Almost every one of us—myself included—can be guilty of verbal bullying in some form almost every single day. Since no one is perfect—no, not even me—the best that any of us can do is to become aware of what we are doing in an effort to avoid verbal abuse as much as we can.
