When feeling in despair
I turn to my paper
to find some solace there
My child, my baby
my beautiful young lady
falling victim to a hater
A bully of the cyber kind
hurting her heart and mind
Feeling defenseless
against this mindless

I don't remember that kind of stuff when I was going to school. Still, we didn't have the internet, and having that makes it so much more easier to spew venom.

I am so sorry, dear Lory, for this really hurts. You may tell your daughter that people who hurt others in this way are usually in a very black spot and feel extremely unloved themselves, thus being fragile to the breaking point where it is temporarily impossible to be aware of the hurt they cause. No one's word possess the power though to break our shield of love. No one has the power to offend us, unless we allow them to. Your daughter's inner and outer beauty can't be affected by a psychopath's actions.

A hug to both, the mother and the daughter.

Love,
Margherita

Margherita,
A constant barage of bullying in one form or another can wear a child down. with cell phones they can do it round the clock.  back in the day we could be safe at home. Even deleting without reading them takes it's toll. Your words are true but much easier said than done.

I agree, dear Lori, with your words, it is extremely frustrating no doubt. I think also the schools should take position and help students who struggle with this problem, by giving them psychological support.

Your love and strength of character is of course of greatest importance. Your daughter will be able to overcome this stressful time, trust.

Hugs.
Margherita
