Bullying

I believe people bully online because of petty jealousy issues or the fact that people are just down right mean. I believe many people envy those who they may believe are better looking than them or are jealous of how smart the other person is. For example, on television, they portray that many "nerds" being bullied. They also portray that the bully may have issues at home; they may want to take that anger and frustration out on someone- therefore they bully the "nerd." Online bullying most likely happens because someone envys another person's looks, life-style, or family. I also believe they may be too scared to say something to the person in person so they bully online. If this were to happen and I was present, I would most likely make sure the person being bullied was okay and sure that the bully was doing that being they are insecure and the person being bullied was fine with nothing to worry about.
