What about the kids who are bullied on social media?




One of the good things about the Internet is that you can leave such sites and find people who don't do that.

Most kids don't really have such a choice when it comes to school or their family.


Online abuse works the exact same way. Most kids don’t choose to be abused online either.

Yes. What I'm saying is that people can choose to leave online spaces that are abusive, as opposed to abuse at school or home, which are much harder (usually impossible) for children to escape.

They should simply stop using social media. Why ban everyone else?
