What Causes Teens to Become Cyber Bullies?

Reasons:

• Lack of parental supervision engaged
• Drug and alcohol use
• Family conflict

In my opinion, families nowadays often use technology as a source of communication and their children getting use to it. Children at the very young age(we are talking about kids between age 12 -16) this day have more freedom to access the virtual world and they considered as partially raise by internet. The way they think of what is right and wrong would probably influence by the internet. The temptation of causing someone pain is sunk into their mindset and they start to think of it as funny and entertaining. The level of maturity at the young age causes them to fail the understand the degree of emotional pain that they can cause to other people. Even they grow up they get use to what they do to the people, they still fail to realised the problem.
