“網(wǎng)”見不平，隨手舉報

利亞喜歡用“臉譜”（Facebook）和家人朋友交流，因為她覺得外面的世界太多紛爭了，不如待在家里用電腦和朋友聊天、分享生活趣事更好。然而，隨著社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)的普及，這個原本清靜的地方也開始出現(xiàn)各種欺凌現(xiàn)象。從小被欺負的她決定不再袖手旁觀——

At first， I spent about four to six hours a day on Facebook， mostly messaging family and old or new friends. I liked being able to talk to my friends from home， because people were always fighting outside.

But you couldn’t get away from fighting， even on Facebook. People 1）posted videos of fights or kids being bullied， or shared someone’s photo without their 2）permission， spreading bad 3）rumors.

I always hated bullying. The first time someone bullied me， I was six. Every day when we went out to 4）recess， one little boy would make me get on the ground. He would get on top of me and ride me like I was a horse. Kids laughed at me， and I felt 5）humiliated. I did not tell my teacher because I thought that would make it worse.

I also did not tell either my birth or 6）foster parents for a long time， because I was scared. I did not know how they would react. Finally， one day， I told my birth father over the phone. He told me to 7）defend myself by hitting the kid back. I did as I was told and I felt great after. I know fighting is not the answer but from that day， I did not let anyone bully me！

Bullying Online

Both my parents and my foster mother taught me that if someone lays a hand on you， you should defend yourself， and that is what I do. However， Facebook is a different world； people do not fight with fists. Instead， they 8）argue or make fun of people or spread rumors. Girls post half-naked pictures of themselves so tons of boys can “Like”them. However， that turns into bullying too because people start calling them 9）whores.

Other girls’ 10）nudity bothers me because it encourages males to speak to all girls in a 11）disrespectful way， and I do not 12）appreciate that. Plus， I think some girls are uploading these types of pictures because they don’t get the right attention they want and need at home. I feel sorry for them.

Facebook should be a safe place for people to just hang out and share pictures of where they’ve been. I noticed there was a “report” button on Facebook to report 13）offensive or 14）inappropriate posts to the site’s 15）administrators. Facebook will take down any post that 16）violates their terms which include， “You will not bully， 17）intimidate， or 18）harass any user. You will not post content that is hate speech， threatening， or 19）pornographic…”

起初我一天會花大約四到六個小時玩“臉譜”，大多是與家人和新朋舊友互發(fā)信息。我喜歡可以在家里和朋友們聊天的感覺，因為在外面的世界，人們總是爭斗不休。

但是，即便在“臉譜”上，爭斗也一樣難以避免。人們會發(fā)布打架或者孩子被欺負的視頻，或者未經(jīng)許可就分享別人的照片，散布惡劣的謠言。

我一向很討厭欺凌這種事。我第一次被人欺負是在六歲的時候，每天課間休息時，有個小男孩總是讓我趴下，然后像騎馬一樣騎在我背上，孩子們哄堂大笑，而我備感羞辱。但是我沒有告訴老師，因為我想那只會讓情況變得更糟。

在很長一段時間里，我也沒有對我的親生父母和養(yǎng)父母提起這事，因為我很害怕，我不知道他們會有什么反應(yīng)。終于，有一天，我在電話里把這事告訴了生父。他叫我回擊那個小孩，維護自己。我照他說的做了，事后感覺很好。我知道打架不能解決問題，但從那一天起，我再也沒有讓任何人欺負我了！

網(wǎng)絡(luò)欺凌

我的親生父母和養(yǎng)母都告訴我，如果有人敢碰你，你應(yīng)該自衛(wèi)。我正是這么做的。然而，“臉譜”是一個不同的世界，人們并不是用拳頭來爭斗，而是與人口角、取笑別人或者傳播謠言。……
