    This explains why social media is bad because people post pictures of themselves and others make fun of them. This is important because people nowadays have nothing to do just be on social media and put negative comments on people. Another fact about bullying is that “The cyber-styling has seeped into online dating, too, leading to what Marina Adshade, an economist at Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia, calls beauty inflation.” This is important because it shows how people don’t have any confident to show their real beauty. This is also important because when people date online they see the fake pictures of people they are talking to, and when they meet in real life they get tricked because they are not the same ones in the picture due to using the apps to change them.

Cyberbullying is very closely linked to suicide, and the Journal of American Medical Association Pediatrics suggests that between five and eight percent of bullied adolescents attempt suicide, with twenty percent considering suicide (Van Geel). Far too many innocent, young lives are lost are the hands of their juvenile, reckless peers, and it is time put an end to it. Numerous prevention proposals have been made to reduce the prevalence of cyberbullying, but it has been to no avail. There is one obvious solution to cyberbullying that has yet been proposed, and that solution is to reinstitute the practice of child labor as it was utilized during England’s Industrial Revolution, as giving the youth an opportunity to spend their days being productive and contributing to society will result in the elimination of cyberbullying while simultaneously improving the overall condition of American…
