I am in agreement with you when you say that many times, people just use social networking websites to stay connected with friends and family, and to have fun.

However, cyberbullying is more common than you realize. The severity of the bullying varies though. That's why we only hear about the sucicides that are the result of cyberbullying. We only hear about the really bad cases; But there are literally thousands of teens out there, just like you and me, who are constantly being bullied through cyberspace. People that don't have facebooks because they want to avoid the possibiliy of being cyberbullied aren't running away from the problem. They are being smart. Very, very smart. It is true. If you don't have a facebook, you won't get bullied on facebook. 

The fact is that if you block someone on facebook because they are bullying you, it is you who is, in fact, "running away from the problem." Though you probably don't mean to, you are simply saying to the bully: "I don't really want to deal with you right now. Go bother someone else will you?" And that person will. That person will go bully someone else....oops, I was preaching again wasn't I? :/ Sorry that you had to listen to all that my fellow teen! I just had to get that out!

I've never been a social network user, I really enjoy my privacy(just me), and my dad had one But I never used. I agree with this. Social networks introduced a new form of bullying to the dictionary, but on the other hand if used correctly Facebook and Myspce can be used as tools or just a way to have fun.

On a side note I think most of the people of our generation, however you define generation, will know not to do anything too stupid on these things or give out valuable info, some I mean, and perhaps pass it on. But if all this trouble with Facebook and other networks contunie, for all we know Facebook could become a long forgotten trend in the history book when we decide we're better off with out it. Maybe.

In one way I agree with you.Facebook bought a lot of trouble.On facebook we can see and discover things which we didn't want to find out and argue with friends,cousins,boyfriend (girlfriend) also some people waste a lot of their precious time for nothing.Pedophilia and fakes profiles are one of disadvantages of facebook.We can destroy our lifes with trifles.And for what?Because of stupid thing that are not worth all of that.Ok,this thing that I mention are not so important for someone but there are a lot of bad influences and troubles that brings facebook to us.But despite all that,there are some good sides of facebook.We can chat with friends from other country and improve our languages skills and also with our cousins and friends from school and friends which we don't see often.So to conclude facebook is not so dangerous if we know some our limits and if we are not 'addict'  and if we know to protect ourselves from bad influences of facebook.
