    "Bullying is so common that it's viewed as

    almost 'normal,' but it should never be."


    Due to increased internet access, cyberbullying has become a
    societal problem that needs to be addressed immediately. Cyberbullies
    can escape taking accountability for their actions because of
    confidentiality.

    Cyberbullying is widely acknowledged as a severe public health


    problem affecting children and adolescents. Few studies have looked at
    the global impact of cyberbullying; the majority of existing studies have
    focused on the national and regional consequences.
    This study aims to learn more about the effects of cyberbullying
    on social media. It seeks to understand the function of social media
    in the continuous increase of online bullying among people. The
    study, most importantly, explains the effects of using social media as
    a method of cyber-cruelty.
    Cyberbullying is a problem worldwide; it has no bounds, and it
    has gone undetected most of the time. Recent research studies
    have revealed that cyberbullying and online harassment are
    considerable problems for users of social media platforms,
    especially young people.
    What are the effects of cyberbullying on social
    media among teenagers and children in the
    Philippines?
    What are the responses of the Philippine
    government to cyberbullying cases in the
    country?
    What is the prevalence of cyberbullying, and
    what are the different forms?
    All forms of child abuse, including cyberbullying or online
    bullying, negatively impact young people's physical and emotional
    wellness. Due to their vulnerability and easy access to the internet,
    children are prime candidates for online violence, making it
    particularly difficult to address.
    In 2019, it was indicated that Region 4-A
    has the highest number of cyberbullying
    incidents, with approximately 92.39
    thousand victims. And CAR with 0.16
    thousand as the lowest.
    Social media has unique characteristics that make it an
    appealing tool for cyber bullies. Different types of cyberbullying
    include verbal, written, and physical displays of or manipulation of
    imagery, symbols, or other images, as well as the use of these
    actions to intimidate, torture, threaten, harass, or embarrass others
    while utilizing the Internet or other technologies, such as mobile
    phones.
    When someone uses social media to bully, the law in the Philippines
    does not clearly define what legal standards are violated. This is because the
    Philippines needs an explicit law that clearly defines the punishable acts of
    online bullying. The Anti-Bullying Act of 2013 (RA 10627), this law requires all
    elementary and secondary schools to adopt policies to prevent bullying.
    Freedom of speech must not be infringed, but this right is
    without limitations. Ultimately, it is always best to devote the stroke
    of our fingers and mouse clicks to intellectual discourse that matters
    rather than risk being held liable under the law. After all, the power of
    our minds should be mightier than any sword.
