Ah, high school. The worst four years of every single person's life. Does anyone enjoy high school? If you did, that's probably when you peaked, and I am now judging you. But really, I don't know anyone for whom high school was particularly easy, whether they were a Regina George or a Duckie. And if you thought your high school experience was hard, look at kids today -- they were going to suffer through school like the rest of us, but then along came the Internet and with it, cyberbullying.
Let's get serious for a moment: I am all for any form of entertainment that brings cyberbullying (or any kind of bullying, for that matter) to people's attention. It goes without saying how important it is for everyone -- both parents and kids -- to get educated about cyberbullying and to learn to speak up about it. And that was the overall "lesson" of ABC Family's Cyberbully last night.
Alas, it was still painfully bad. ABC Family, you've done it again! You've taken what could've been an interesting and timely topic (teen pregnancy, for example) and made it sickly sweet and unrealistic. Another opportunity wasted.
Let's take a look, shall we? Taylor has the ideal life -- good friends, caring mom, and pop music that plays in the background as she gets ready every morning. Yes, an awful girl at school is always making fun of her and her friends, but they shrug it off with admirable panache. Taylor's mother is reduced to reciting mom-esque platitudes, like: "What you do online isn't exactly private," and Taylor and her friends are reduced to reciting teenage girlish exclamations, like: "I swear, when he touched my shoulder, there was, like, electricity." Taylor's one real problem? Daddy issues, because...well, what else? If this all sounds vomit-inducingly clichéd, that's because it was.
But then Taylor gets a computer. She joins a site called Clicksters, and after her mother reminds her multiple times that she shouldn't give out personal information on the Internet, she goes on and answers questions about what color underwear she's wearing. That's really where the trouble, but more importantly, the underestimation of teenagers (their intelligence and their online savvy) begins. Yes, kids are dumb and they do inappropriate things on the Internet. But they also avoid embarrassment at all costs, and Taylor instead spends the entire movie doing exactly the opposite. She subjects herself to embarrassment -- instead of shutting her account down, she keeps it up and obsessively looks at the cruel comments, making her profile a display of lies about her for all to see. She retaliates at comments, too, instead of ignoring them. And even more unrealistically, she accepts a friend request from a stranger and gets excited about messages from him, which I think most teens would find creepy rather than cool. She even tells him after a week that her father cheated on her mother. Why does Taylor act like this? We can only guess that it's because she's just a stupid teenager. The question is never really answered.
The thing is, Taylor seems like a well-adjusted girl and she wants to be a journalist -- she is a good writer and is socially adept. But for the sake of the movie, she is reduced to a giggling (and then sobbing) teen that does one dumb thing after another. Sure, teenagers are dramatic and idiotic all at once. But these teenagers sound like they were written by someone whose idea of teens came from watching after-school specials. For example, Taylor's friend says that Taylor "doesn't even have internet on her phone!" Another friend responds, "Ugh, how does she live?" As I mentioned above, it's a lot like Secret Life of the American Teenager, in that it sees teens as vapid and inexperienced, which maybe they are, but there's nothing teenagers hate more than being told that they are those things. They don't like being talked down to or underestimated, so I can't help but think they were rolling their eyes at Cyberbully last night more than they were actually learning something. They probably felt (and rightly so) insulted.
Not only that, Cyberbully was entirely predictable -- of course there was a suicide attempt and a lot of dramatic music and screaming at the climax. And then even worse, the end was tied up with a pretty red bow. If ABC Family really wanted to make a point about cyberbullying, it wouldn't have been with a happily ever after. Cyberbully ended up being another piece of fluff ABC Family production, even though they attempt to tackle something difficult.
However, the movie being just an hour and a half worked for it, because it showed how quickly things can get out of hand online -- how quickly people online can gang up on one person. We've seen it many times -- Rebecca Black, Jessi Slaughter, Kirsten Ostrenga, Phoebe Prince -- and yet it's always good to be reminded. As one of Taylor's friends mentions, online bullying doesn't feel as real -- you can't see the other person, so it's easier to hurt them.
Another good thing: Taylor really did feel she was alone in being cyberbullied, but unfortunately, it happens to a lot of people, which she realized upon talking with a support group. Cyberbullying can happen to the most normal of people, too, and Taylor was feeling like something was wrong with her because that's what she was being told. In reality, Taylor was okay; she was more than okay, but she only understood that after being told directly. If Cyberbully helped to remind kids that they're not alone, then good. You can't win in high school, but it helps to know that neither can anyone else.
Still, Cyberbully was an example of a tale as old as time -- one long wag of a finger in its audience's face. Don't talk to strangers, be careful about who you make friends with, and don't respond to hatred with hatred, which only adds fuel to the fire. If it helps to inform some kids that weren't aware of these things already, then okay. But I can't imagine many of them feeling like it echoed real life or stated anything other than the obvious.

Cyberbullying is`nt cool or funny!
me neather i watched the movie and i cryed like 10 times it wasent cool man!!!!!!
ummmm hey whats the name of the website that she was on
cyberbullying isn't cool or funny, it hurts and it never goes away. best way to avoid it is to never give out personal info about yourself and to report abusive, vicious or nasty comments to the site.
clicksters
Clicksters is a real website, you know.
I just watched this movie right now (i recorded it from yesterday) and i must say that it was quite an amazing movie. I broke down at the part where taylor was about to commit suicide. it was really well acted and played out and the cast was just beautiful. I think they should make more of these movies, but I think this movie was just terrific. and i think that the law at the end of the movie should be passed in every state in the US and in every country in the world. STOP cyberBULLYING NOW
I think it was actually a really good movie and cyberbullying is very hurtfull and i dont cry in a lot of movies but i did in this one cause i know that this happens to people and that people actually do commit suicide for this stuff stop cyberBullying now!
i actually loved the movie! i was so close to tears!!! i think it portrays teens realistically, and I'd no. i am one!
I loved this movie i think it really has taught me a lesson and not to get all moody cause i dont have a facebook i dont know... but it was an amazing movie and it taught me a lot
this movie tought me a lot because i used to get cyberbullyed by people at my school and now i now how to deal with them and cyberbullys
I laughed throughout the whole thing, the acting was terrible and the people unrealistic. Though I have to say, "I CAN'T GET THE CAP OFF" was my favorite part ahahaha
I do have to say I loved this movie and I think this was Emily's best acting. I cried especially during the suicide scene. I liked how it showed how people were going to react if she actually went through it.
i really liked the movie and i was suprised at how well emily could act. some of the things that happened were not realistic but overall it was good. :)
I loved how She stuck with her friend at the end I would of tore her hair out but I saw that by Her standing her ground and not insulting her was the best way ! Because then That awful Lindsay got what was comeing to her! eveyone was Happy! All of it was realistic I dont know what you guys are even talking about but I liked the movie! Its` awsome That Emily osment did it but who gets to remind her that she did a song called I hate the Homecomeing Queen! You can feel bad for saying nasty things that hurt peoples feelings`! but what about people who stand there ground and are really pretty they make fun of that Like I love the Homecoming song! but still does She feel bad about the song? Now that She did this movie! Reasonable Question!
IT WAS A SAD MOIVIE
IT WAS A SAD MOIVIE
How to stop getting cyberbullied:
Step 1: Turn off the computer.
where is clicksters at? i cant find it
dont judje people if you dont want to be judged
You are seriously disallusioned if you think this movie was completely unrealistic. I don't know what sort of bubble you live in, sure, maybe teens from your neck of the woods aren't as cliche. But where I live, they are just as cruel, just as demeaning. And the three friends? In my opinion, perfectly acted.
A friend of a friend of mine was caught in nearly the exact same situation. She had been shadowed from the internet her whole life by her parents, even homeschooled up until high school. Her parents got her a laptop for her 16th birthday (which occured just after she began high school). She created a Facebook page and within a week, she had been torn down and bullied to the point where she actually did commit suicide.
Sure, she could have deleted her profile. Would the rumors have stopped? No. But the way Taylor had to keep seeing the comments, it has to do with her self esteem. Taylor's self esteem was being lowered more and more with every comment, and she felt vulnerable and betrayed. But she felt hope that maybe, just maybe, someone would stick up for her, like that "James" guy. Or maybe it would all stop. She just /had/ to keep checking. It's an addiction.
Yeah sure, it was cliched. But aren't most cliches based off of real life? Why would we want a completely uncliche story that had probably never happened before? And now might only happen /because/ of this movie. The fact that it was cliche made it more realistic and easier to relate to the characters.
The only part about this movie I did not like was the ending. If it had been any of my friends, I probably would not have forgiven them for a very long time. Considering she had been driven to commit suicide, it's pretty serious what her friend had done. And her other friend, who backed out on her in her time of need and pretended they had never been friends? Who needs a friend like that? Who says she won't do it again?
The whole Luke situation bugs me too. OK I get it, he probably did really like her and peer pressure encouraged him to not want to associate with her. Understandable. But why would she go back to someone who hurt her? Who didn't even want to be seen with her?
Those were the only parts I hated. Otherwise, for the lovely relationship of the family (Mother, daughter and son), for the realistic storyline, the conflict and resolution, and absolute tearjerker moments, I give this movie an 8.5/10. I would mark it a 9, if not for the horribly inserted attempt at comedy in the suicide scene by inserting the "I can't get the cap off!" line (which in my opinion, took away from the emotion of the scene).
Overall an amazing movie. Definitely worth watching with your family or friends.
I cried several times it hit home to me because a couple of friends of mine tried to hurt them selves. They are alive and well and i hope that it never happens again or to there children

Seems to me as though most of the people commenting here are pre-teen girls.

Yea that was the part that hit home...-sigh- i makes me wanna cry thinking about it
Seems to me as though most of the people commenting here are pre-teen girls.
Yeah. And it seems like a few of them are the same person (not ALL of you, do not wig out on me!). tried to sit through that movie with my cousin, and we both got so annoyed at it that we didn't quite make it through. Glad it's touched and helped someone out there, but eegads! It is possible to make smarter entertainment for younger people, ABC just chose to be lazy.
the movie was something i think everyone in highschool can relate too. i wasnt cyberbullied but i know how mean kids can make you feel. trust me ive been to the point that Taylor from the movie was at before and it was terrible i was really close to taking my own life at one point in my freshman year and luckly i realized that i had just enough people that cared for me to keep me alive and they kept me breathing. this movie made me cry, because i can so easily relate. and i think alot of us can.
i actually liked the ending when she forgave her friends and Luke because she was still so broken down and she needed people that could help support her and they all came up to her and were sorry and ready to be close to her again and help her. plus her friend that made the fake profile was then going through the same thing she did. and she still loved her friend so they should be able to get through it together, i believe its better to forgive and forget.
This movie had its moments, but the ending was way too cheesy. Was it really necessary to make her life better after that whole incident? It made it completely unrealistic, but the overall message ABC Family was trying to send was a good one.
I am pretty sure the guy she forgave was named Scott, not Luke.
Cliques.com
I really liked this movie... I thought it did a great job of portraying what takes place with stuff online and what it does to a person. I was in her shoes. I did what she did-- i swallowed the pills. Its rough stuff. Not something to play with. Finally i stepped up the game and took matters into my own hands and found out how to track I.P addresses and well now I'm a computer whiz. Its a great tool for teens. I Think it was neccasary.
When does it come one again
this movie was horribly acted and horribly written. they tried to portray her as a strong individual, but then, of course, she can't take the slightest bit of cruelty and she breaks down. and oh, wait, all her friends leave her too? gosh.
oh, and she can't get the cap off.
she is 16/17. really, abc family.
oh, and more gold lines, like "like on instant message or something?" when she is all ditsy around a boy she likes. ugh. i just can't stand this movie and how stupid it makes teenaged females look.
Wow, I didn't realize there were this many jr high kids looking at this site. The movie was melodramatic, which is how most teenagers are, but I think they could've handled the subject better so maybe kids will realize that it's NOT the end of the world. Yes, it's painful, yes, it hurts, but this movie was so eye-roll inducing it lost the message for me. But what can you expect from the geniuses that bright us Melissa and Joey?
I am not a teenager, but I do have one. This movie was fantastic. Every teenager should be required to watch the movie.
Wow. The commenters on here must absolutely crap their pants over the high quality on Lifetime Movie Network.
Cyberbullying is such bullshit. I'm been bullied for my entire life and all I can say is: get over it.
People will make fun of you and waste their time to torture you forever. The best thing for you to do is to realize that people are shit and there's nothing you can do about it.
This was a really depressing movie but shows the truth of what really happens! I almost cried during all her depression stages, than cried when it was over. I think the movie and the ending is great. All teenagers should have to watch this.
i got cyberbullyed they said i sucked
I could relate to this. My expectations weren't high, because I don't like Emily Osment. But I used to cut myself and my parents found out. Watching the part where her mom goes, "It's really hard to see you like this" made me realize how much I hurt my parents. I couldn't stop sobbing.
This movie was amazing! Abc family did a great job I cried when she's was going to kill her self. I think schools should she this movie to the kids.
Jesus Christ, why are some parents so lacking in common sense? Since the dawn of time the parental wisdom has gone that you have to ignore bullies until they get bored, walk away, tell an adult if it is really bad, etc. Does no one get that speech anymore? Just because it's happening in a new format we're supposed to pass laws to stop kids from being stupid and mean to each other?
Kids have always been and will never stop being stupid and mean to each other; the internet did not bring malice or obsession into existence. It is your job to notice that your son or daughter has been upset recently and if necessary restrict your child's activities accordingly. While you're at it you can also give them the 'sticks and stones' speech.
I laughed. I laughed at this movie. None of their behavior was typical or realistic of any teen I have ever met. Nobody I knew in high school acted to horrible and cruel for no reason at all. Seriously, I'm sick and tired of the "purely evil" characters that they plug into shows and movies like this. Every teen I know has laughed at this ludicrous film. Sure, cyberbullying happens, but when it does, if you ignore it it goes away. IT REALLY DOES. The reason people keep bullying is because the person keeps reacting. That is what they want. Also, really, her trying to kill herself was the most laughably unrealistic event in the entire movie (which isn't saying much, by the way). It is the internet and people are mean sometimes. You are only seventeen. That doesn't make the entire school hate you and your friends turn against you. Out of high school, none of it matters. Ever. Really, parents, if you take advice from this movie, please let it be that you should not take things so seriously. And by things, I mean this movie.
By the way, I am a teenager that just finished high school. My age does not invalidate my opinion. Also, I've been called fat and ugly online, I ignored it, and like every other person online that has done that ever, I was left alone.
i go to a public high school and not one kid there would
A. accept a friend request from a complete stranger
B. create a fake account online just to teach their friend a "lesson"
C. not delete the account when the bullying started
D. be so overdramatic and break down in tears at every insult
also, no one is mean to anyone else for no reason. the reason may be petty or superficial but it's still there.
also in high school, nothing is going to make the ENTIRE SCHOOL turn against you. this movie was laughable at best. insulting at worst
I have to say this movie seemed like one of those watered-down, generic, we're-gonna-make-you-watch-this-in-youth-group movie. It reminded me alot of the Lifetime movie, Odd Girl Out, where yes, a girl got cyberbullied and OD'd but fought back to her bullies and was also in the eighth grade.
Oh and To Save A Life, but that was mainly because my youth group did actually make us watch it.
I'm sorry, but it was terrible. The only part(s) I found that were remotely realistic was when her mom was like persuading her to go to the support group. It sounded exactly like my mom and I fighting. Haha.
It really makes no sense at all how Samantha made up 'James'... Okay, she pretended to be someone to distract her from the other guy. Not bad, like sending flowers. But did she ever say why exactly she posted that he gave her an STD? No sense.
Also, Taylor literally started crying at anything....
Trust me, if you survived middle school, you could easily take a few blows before your eyes would start to pucker.
Oh also, let me just say deleting/ and or ignoring insults isn't really going to change. You should comment back (no, not INSULT back). if I were Taylor, I would comment back pointing out how ridiculous it was that they had nothing better to do with their lives then spread pathetic rumors about me. (That was really ridiculous at the amount of people on there.)
I'm a freshman in high school, and I've been bullied, but if they had something idiotic to say, I'll say something back.
Oh and the dialogue in this movie? Generic. My friends have much better things to talk about other than what's on their Wall or what boys are stupid jocks...
I used to have one of those formspring things and people posted mean things. I got upset a couple of times, but then I just deleted it. I graduated high school last month and now I don't have to worry about this stuff anymore since I'm never seeing these people again
I don't understand why the main character wasn't smart enough to delete her profile and everyone was stupid enough to believe "James."
Most important lesson for a teenager to learn? Haterz gonna hate!
Most important lesson for a teenager to learn? Haterz gonna hate!
i agree with the author of this article. Very predictable movie. Yeah, I did roll my eyes at some parts, but others were realistic, i.e. the "mean girls" poking fun at the girl at school. I think for most people who see this movie, the stuff just hits too close to home. My hope, as you the author, pointed out yourself, is that this movie will encourage other states to add a no tolerance cyberbullying policy into their law. The sooner this stops, the better for us all.
why you all ?? very But did she ever say why exactly ??
ok tht gyrl wit da brown hair if she mess wit meh i would've knock da shit out of her
ya it was a sad movie
i'm going 2 watch this movie cuz we wer talking about it @ school. yeah, cyberbullying isn't funny AT ALL!!

I agree, some parts did feel like an after school special, but wasn't that the point of this movie? Other than that, I was expecting this movie to be much worse and unrealistic that I thought, so this movie exceeded my expectations. Also, you never commented on the acting. I think Emily Osment did great in this movie, especially considering how she's used to playing light-hearte, dizzy roles. Ain't that right Lilly?
I know that i hated being teased in school and i still to this day have to deal with the drama its hard but i get what i need done then do what i have to do its so hard sometimes then when it coming online for the world to see it and theres more drama i have this one girl at school and on facebook making fun of me its hard and i think thats why i love this movie so much!!!!
Eh. I thought the movie was totally stupid. I mean, Dear god.... They said mean things about me online. Imma go kill myself now. Classic An-hero setup right there. By the time it got to the suicide scene, I was hoping and praying she would off herself. And cyberbullying is hilarious. And the ones who stick around like the main character in the movie, pretty much deserve it.

It wouldn't be to hard to get the entire damn school to turn against one student. The majority of them have a mob mentality.... And maybe it's just the chicks that can't handle this shit. I mean, I was and am a Fat-ass geeky motherfucker. And I still didn't get all weepy and such when they made fun of me. I just punched hte offender in the face.

I. am so glad I was homeschooled and didn't learn to use a computer until I was 19 this movie however seemed ridiculous I wish I never watched bullying is horrible. In any form but the ending was unrealistic at least in " Odd Girl Out" Alexis Vega's character had enough sense to find a new friend and not stay friends with the girl who had been bullying her
The Victim Never deserves it, Lucas.
Unrealistic is what you have to say? Really? It takes a truly heartless person to sit there and say that teens trying to kill themselves from being in emotional pain 'laughable'. It hits very close to home.
We all have to play a part in order to stop bullying all together. It dose no good just by saying (Stop!!) We acualy have to take a stand. Kids Teens Adults even Elder`s. Im shure thay dont like hering about it. But realy thay should have passed it long time ago the first sighn of it instead of whating until some one dies.
Teacher`s and staff memebers have to start caring about the well being of all kids and thare safty. Lets face it a hell of alot of school boards dont realy give a shit untill some one dies. All thay say is look at that trouble maker when infact thay dont see behide that its not him thats cousing all that trouble and all ways going to the priceple office its the other student that all ways makeing him go to the office becouse he keeps geting in to fight`s with him and the staff only see`s that its the victims falt cause she or he is allways geting in to fight`s. Climb over that wall and try to see the real petcher. Whats a student sapose to do when thay get bullyed all the time and no one seems to understand. Parents dont understand couse thare not thare but when thay do come ocasonly thay see how hard it is just by wlaking in to a school thay understand how though it must be you`d think teacher`s staff and priceple would see it but no all thay whant to her from one staff member is that that student is bad becouse he ran in the hall one day wile playing with her or his freind and being targeted as that trouble maker.
Kids will be kids not in school`s if some one dosent whant to grow up right away let them be who thay whant to be.Dont critesis some one just becouse thare difrent were all F`ing difrent thats what makes use uneke as my mom allways said if we were all the same the world would be a very boring place.
This world is scrude up enough do we realy want more greef. People are killing them self`s over it i understand what these are going throw. A few time`s ive though of the same but i was to scard to acually go through with it. And it is realy a stupid thing to do. You have a few years of high school and thats it your done i hated midle school to mind you but. School ends one day and thats that. You dont whant to throw your life away just couse a bounch of ass holes hurt you.
I dont know personaly it realy pisses me off to see it happen to other people. But one day when the victim servivse all that school crap witch thay dont teach you alot anyway and most of it you forget mind you but when the victim servivse it thay have thare hole life`s ahead of them and the bully`s thare all probibly go to pression anyway one day so. Please Every one out thare please who`s going through all the bullying shit for god`s sace`s hang in thare ans stick through it and everything will be fine in the futcher. And for all the one`s who couldnt stay with use may you Rest In Peace R.I.P.
Im finanly done school but it still hearts me to see that it happends to others no one deserve`s to be bullyed or treated porly No Matter For What Reasone. No One disserve`s to be hurt. All though thare are those who do disserve some typs of punishments. Thats a diffrent topic.But hight school kids thare just trying to live thare live`s and well aware of thare problems thay dont need some ass to point it out for them. No One desserves to feel alone. Whats so bad about feeling good (question marks not working)Give peace a chance why not it couldnt hurt. And that gose for everyone. Everymans gota walk in his one shose so why do we need people to hurt other`s. One thing i dont get is that good aparantly created use not to religious so` But we have good people and we have the bad and just people how just make bad decisions dosnt mean thare bad necessarliy its just when thay get in the way of the nice people who make good decision and ruin thare whole live`s buy tormenting them until thay cant face it anymore and thay just crumble. Ive been scrude befor manytimes but evan as the years go bye you cant help to think about the bad S`t that happend to you in the past ya you try to forget and move on but for some people its harder. I cant let go becouse i see it happen. People egnore everything dosnt mean its not thare or ever was. I hate seeing people cry in sadnes pain sufering its not a pretty sight to see. As many times you`d like to forget about bad stuff and as many time`s as family or freind`s say Get Over It It well allways be in the back of your mind. Everytime i see this cyberbully or anny typ of bullying it just break`s me down and piss`s me off at the same time. It hurts me to see all that sadness and pain. It`s hard to beleave and to see that people can do such thing`s. So what if you diffrent or ode dosent make you any diffrent from anyone ells. Where all wierd & diffrent in our own way so who are people to say that you suck or your life is worth S`t. I know words hurt but thare just just bad words said bye jealous people when thare said buy them it dosnt mean a thing. But people hate to here it i understand that but try to egnore it if you can hopley it well pass. Ive allways been diffrent from people in this generasion but dosnt mean i dont whant to fit in.But i dont think thay realy liked it i realy dont know. A little wile befor i graduated from high school i saw some kids i new from middle school who bullyed me and thay were telling a life skills kid to wlak around the school and life skills for those who dont know is the class ware the mentaly chaleged kids are. So he did so i walked up to them and told them what thay where doing was wrong and guy i new said that he realy wanted to hurt me i guess i was killing thare fun. So i was pritty calm so i walked up to the life skils boy and told him that (you know you dont have to do what thay tell you)And he just smiled and said wear playing a game... So i went to the priceples office and told them what was going on and what did thay do? Nothing!! That pissed me off. I hade my wone problems in high school but as time whent bye i developed a fuew diffrent personality to help but thay didnt so i just stuck with one. The Stricked One. And my music was a huge help aswell. But it wasnt who i am i couldnt be myself thare. If youve been bullyed enough with out realising it you start to talk behind people`s back`s and doing the same thing thay did to you. Its very easy. thare was this one girl i hade in scenice class she didnt like me much and i wasnt fond of her but 2 guys how turnd out to be jerks later`wed be laughing and having fun but she got so up set that she started yelling at me and she didnt talke to the others just me i didnt like that butch so i sort of started talking behind her back so i told one other freind who was freinds with her and ofcours he blabed to her witch he shouldnt have. So the next day she told me she new and told me she didnt evan know me and all this bull becouse i new she didnt like me just like the rest of then. But i know what i did was wrong and i tryed apologizing but it didnt take. Any way the whole poyent of that was to show that the victims can make mistaks to but aslong as we know we did and try to fix what we did wrong. Were all just human trying to make it in this world we call aware home. Like thay say YOU CANT WINE in high school or out side. And yes I loved Cyberbully it was acualy a sad movie thare weire some happy moments but mostly sad one. But the ending was sorry to say It was a corney but thats Hollywood for you most of the time anyway. But all in all I think it was a great movie. I cryed my self to sleep last night i just cant shake it. and if thay do make the second movie even if its not as good as the first one witch is most of the time normal but thats ok. I would deffenetly watch it. I know i went on rant thare but its not easy seeing those thing`s. some times i wish i was in one of those ytv nikoldeon shows weire everything is just right ya thare may be some problems but thay all end up happy just like most movie`s. Thats y people whatch them to get away from thare real live`s for a fuew a wores and hide. A girl asked me once what im most afraid of and i couldnt realy tell her right thare on the spot but after thinking about it id have to say that im most scard of the fact that i will be alone one day couse im a only child right know im not thinking of marege seeing is that im to young but. I dont realy care if people see this cause you dont know me. Even thou things are going well for me know i still think about these thing`s especaly when i see it. But im just going to live my life and try to take what ever life bring`s be or force`s me to take. Bye PEACE & LOVE)
Maybe she couldn’t get the cap off because she was so upset and when your upset you cant think strait. Ya she could of shut of her account but its hard to just walk away from that iv hade that happen to me i clicked on some one I didn’t know turned out to be some one at school but. I don’t know way i clicked on it I guess i just wanted to make a new friend very similar to the movie. But we do thin...g's we shouldn’t do but that’s just part of growing up and yes words do hurt some time's especially when some one has very low self steam and all they want to do is just make friends. And with that suicide video she put ya it was really sad but it just made the movie even better. Those thing's happen in life but we just have to watch out for them even if there are no warning sigh’s. Keep asking your children how was your day at school? even though its the same thing over and over again. ask them what they did if they hade any problems and just maybe they will give you some warning sign with out realizing it. Just always be on the look out for those thing's. I know I will when i get married. Who Knows it could get worse or better in the futcher. Yes the movie was a great movie but the paragraph up top is talking about how they liked it and y they don’t. but know one's talking the real problem. Some Of use are nothing in school or maybe even in public but we all have the ability to hang in as long as we can until something good happens to use. We have find the thing's that keep use going in life. But unfortunately there are those who aren’t as strong and us as family & friends have to take the time and effort to deal with the situation like talking about it or getting help for the victim (Not Buy Getting Up Set Or Yelling!!) In life we have aware ups and down's some people may have there ups more then there downs and some people might have there down's more then there ups. We will break down and cry one's and awhile but that’s another part that’s just makes use human. But we all have to do aware part in making the world a better and safer place for all. So Girls And Guys of all age's go out find the thing's that make you happy weather it material things or if its something you want to do' it could even be some kind of new career WHAT EVER IT MAY BE GO OUT AND DO IT!!. Life is to short to waist make the best out of bad situation and try to make new friends. Go out and enjoy your lives.
I actually thought the movie was awesome. It was very well acted. I don't think it was unrealistic at all. I know i can't live without internet on my phone, i mean how else could i have passed chemistry.
i absoulty LOVED the movie but it was like totally not cool of her suppose to bff do that, like really wat a best freind she is ..... cyberbulling used to be funny till u relize hw many pple u hurt..... is bulling someone for ur humor really worth losing someone thats been there for everything.....you dont knowwhat u got till its gone !!!!
I found this movie to be very unrealistic and I had no sympathy for Taylor. She had people who were trying to help but she just blew them off. While this movies does show that you are not alone but the ending is so unrealistic that it ruins whatever message ABC was trying to get across.

@Sophia Wetlaufer, your article makes me think one of two things. Either you are a teenager yourself, or you most definitley are NOT a parent of a teen. This movie was not unrealistic. A bit cheesy maybe, but most definitely realistic. I am a mother of 2 teens and a middle school teacher and i see things like this happen on a regular basis. We advise kids to not put personal information online, but they do it anyway to brag, to get adoration and affirmation from their peers. We tell kids NOT to talk to strangers, yet they except friend requests from 3000 strangers. When bad things are being said about them online, we advise them to NOT log on, just try to ignore it, but their morbid curiousity cannot keep them away. This movie was an example of how things can go terribly wrong and I watched it with both of my teenage children. Neither of whom thought it was a stretch or insulting. Your analysis was dead wrong.
Thanks for another excellent post
Fantastic goods from you, man
Honestly... This movie was BRILLIANT... I bawled when Taylor tried to commit suicide and I hit me really hard mostly cuz Ive been in her place... I've tried to hurt myself or I did hurt myself... The thing is people don't understand how much it hurts to be called names or how much it hurts to be the odd one out! People who make others do that to themselves make me SICK.
I would like to thank you for the efforts you've put in writing this blog
Good – I should certainly pronounce, impressed with your web site

Forgive me if this was covered in one of your other videos, what are your thoughts on "frozen" fruit? Been reading 80/10/10, and he mentions the importance of water content in fruits..... (sorry haven't completed book yet). Thanks for any reply!!
Sometimes I contemplate if folks truly take time to publish something original, or are they only just dishing out words to fill a site. This surely doesn't fit that mold. Thank you for taking the time to write with awareness. At times I look at a page and question whether they even proofread it.Fantastic work with this article.
Great post, thanks so much for the information I love reading about this.

I was skeptical about diet pills like phen375, so I ordered just 1 bottle to try it out. Just reordered, says it all! First couple of days felt I had lots of energy, in fact too much as I was still buzzing in the evening. After 1-2 days settled down and started to see the results. Didn't lose 20lbs in month like the review says, but very happy with the 11lbs i did lose!!!
Barron and my brother were high school friends who wrestled and played football on the same team for 4yrs. As such, I watched him in both sports for those 4yrs. and saw him at other times with my brother Marvin. One of the usual places to see Barron and my brother was at Hi's Icecream where they would have contests to see who could drink the most malts. I love his comment about giving a child icecream. It really fits him! He was a great guy! Beth, Bruce and family, we are thinking of you all.
Where's part three? I thought it was going to be uploaded on Friday?
Congrats, Ben and Jeff for a great program.
Identified your article incredibly interesting in fact. I definitely liked examining it so you make very some superior details. I'll bookmark this web site for that potential! Relly excellent article.
hi i like cyberbully im 11 years old hi everyone whats up by.
The beauty of these blogging engines and CMS platforms will be the lack of limitations and ease of manipulation that enables developers to implement rich content and 'skin' the internet site in such a way that with extremely small effort one would never notice what it really is creating the web site tick all with out limiting content and effectiveness.
There ya go, I suppose it becomes a habit for ya
Hi there, i just wanted to drop you a line to say that i thoroughly enjoyed this particular post of yours, I have subscribed to your RSS feeds and have skimmed a few of your posts before but this one really stood out for me. I know that I am just a stranger to you but I figured you might appreciate the admiration Take care and keep blogging.
Located your report quite appealing certainly. I seriously loved reading through it and you also make fairly some fantastic factors. I'll bookmark this internet site for your future! Relly excellent report.
This is definitely a weblog that men and women need to get behind. The problem is, no one desires to do a fantastic deal of reading and not have some thing else to stimulate the mind. This is the web, right after all. Maybe in case you added a video or two to emphasise your point. Ill stick around, FOR Positive. But, I dont know if other people will.
I posted one more comment to your blog, but you didnt approve that. I still keep check your blog anyways..
This was a terrible movie, Everyone just was horrible in this movie, I saw this when it aired and Abc family shows they really know nothing about the topic they're trying to handle with this movie. Yeah I know cyberbullying is wrong, but you don't suger coat it. Emily Osmond's character was terrible, she's shallow and didn't make me care about her at all. Why do we have to be invested in this heartless character. I rather care about the one character who is gay, he should have been the main character he was a better character than emily's. The only sensible character is the mother who has common sense. ABC family could of handled this alot better than this but no they dumbed it down to make this mess of a movie.
Discovered your post really remarkable certainly. I really really enjoyed reading through it and you make rather some superior factors. I will bookmark this web site with the foreseeable future! Relly fantastic post.

Sebagai rakyat biasa memang rasa agak keliru, tidak tahu nak percaya siapa. Kebenaran akan terbukti, mungkin bukan sekarang tapi kita sudah menghampiri kebenaran.
Kebenaran ada di luar sana...
Apakah DSAI sanggup junjung Alquran menafikan tuduhan liwat ke atasnya?
Apakah tindakan junjung Alquran tak sesuai untuk membuktikan hal ini?
Apakah ini akan menjadi tindakan menghina Alquran?
Lebih sesuai kita tangguhkan dahulu tindakan ini.
Mengapa mahkamah melepaskan DSAI dalam kes lepas sekiranya memang dia bersalah?
Apakah kes ini terlalu aib atau terlalu peribadi bagi orang tertentu untuk dipersalahkan? Apakah kerana dia DSAI?
KEBENARAN akan terbukti dengan sendirinya nanti.
Semoga Tun sihat sejahtera dan terus menyelusuri akal kewarasan minda menegakkan kebenaran.
Wassalam
Any issue with buying Staples giftcards with Ink Bold through the UR shopping portal to get 10x, then buying other merchant gift cards that are not offered on Staples.com (such as Shell) with the Staples gift card at a B&M Staples? Will this work?
