     CYBER BULLYING, STORIES & FACTS


''Sally'' lives in Alanta, Georgia and has been growing up like any other teenager, being influenced by both her peers and parents. Although, she never expected how exposing she is to the internet. In her case, the bullying wasn't as severe as it could've been. 

Unknown to ''Sally'', a class mate when she was 13 started taking pictures of of her. The photos were then posted on an internet by a fake social media page. The page was made to look like Sally had posted the photos herself. Sally became aware of the website only through friends and third parties. The information on the page was very detailed, and public. The creator of the page denied posting everything. Sally enrolled in a different middle school because she was being excluded. 

In ''Sally's'' case, the result was only the loss of a few friends, but it could've been far worse. Simply by someone having access and time could ruin someone's life.
