As children develop throughout their school years they learn how to independently behave in a social context. This allows them to form relationships with people outside of their immediate family. However, this can be challenged if bullying is encountered. Farrington (1993) (cited in Holliman and Critten, 2015, p. 75) describes face-to-face bullying as; physical, verbal and psychological attacks or intimidation intended to cause fear, distress or harm to the victim. Furthermore, he concludes the characteristics commonly involve an imbalance of power, are unprovoked and incidents are repeated over time.

We all know that Cyberbullying is a decently sized problem, but real bullying is the most prevalent bullying issue today, right? Wrong. Over 90,000 kids will stay home from school because they have been bullied online, this out numbering the 70,000 by physical bullying. Children in the US are deeply manipulated by cyberbullying today because of our growing use of technology. This allows cyberbullying to sneak into our everyday lives without noticing it. This causes our youth to push away their real lives, sinking deeper into their glowing electronic screens and in a few cases, causes them to commit suicide.

What causes the prevalence of cyber-bullying is that some people don’t realize they are victims or perpetrators. They hide behind a mask of anonymity to claim for freedom of expression. But actually, there exist the bounds of free expression and some problematic forms of expression. The effects of this behavior are more serious than they think. Freedom of expression is important but so is social responsibility.

The law regarding schools’ ability to punish students for disrupting the learning environments in schools needs to be strengthened. Schools in this day and age have been facing a more and more frequent problem of having to deal with harassment and bullying online for while the internet does not increase the amount of bullying it does provide a medium to do so that our legal system is not fully prepared to handle. The internet gives students the ability to put out opinions that can very easily make it to a wide audience and indirectly impact the learning environment regardless if there are at school or not. Teachers have even become targets of their own students harassment and it is uncertain whether it is the school 's responsibility to deal with it or not.

Social media is now a major outlet for bullying. Bullying has always been a problem, but not until the twenty-first century has it been on something that isn’t reality: the internet.

Schools have been evaluated by different organizations on whether or not they should be involved in off-campus cyberbullying.

Cyberbullying should be taken into the hands of the school if it happens off-campus because if nothing happens then it can get a child hurt or even killed. Students who are targeted by cyberbullies have no way to escape from the attackers brutality, who can drive the victim to suicide or self harm.
