Cyber - Bullying

Megan Meier was a 13 years old teen , who like anyother teenager , wanted to be loved by all. She commited suicide after cyber - bullying by another acount holder - 16 years old boy. Which later on found to be made by mother of one of her friends.

Do you think it is now necessary to make it mandatory for people to logged in with their real identification especially on social websites?

Plus , do you think some kind of laws should be implemented to prevent any extreme actions by people.

What else should be done to prevent any of such actions by children and teenagers

Real identity on internet can under no circumstances be made obligatory for various security reasons.

As always I would say the same thing which most here won't agree (depending on age)😊. We have had many discussions on parental control and cyber-crimes here. A 13 year old, how much ever she claims to be mature, need to be monitored on internet. It is parents' responsibility. I have seen some 15 year old on IF feeling depressed and considering their IF-buddies as real family because parents' are too busy or ignorant about internet and pressures a teenager faces in this day and age. I believe, to understand a child better it is parents' responsibility to go along with a child through various phases of growth.

Maya Memsaab I 100% agree with you. Nothing more to add there.

We have so many 13-16 yrs old members here and other forums thinking VL friends are their Dis and Bros😕😳

In no way you can impose a rule to proof yourself what age you are(if it happens then i think Mojority will be all guys in social forums)...

Firstly its all parents duty to know where there kids are stepping in.
As Maya ji said..In this forum too they take relations too serious on every occasion.
but at the same time there are few younger members who take advice with parents in forum too no matter what they do here. thats good.

About making Didi or bro its not a bad thing if tied with some one good person..coz some times younger members turn to them to seek there advice.
Many even met in real life too...so not every relation here is bad.
