Cyber bullying website hit among teens

Posted: 05/18/2010

A new social website allows people to post whatever they want to others anonymously.

And some students are using it for some of the worst types of cyber-bullying.

Some parents say the new website called formspring.me is engineered perfectly for harassment. You can link it to your Facebook, MySpace, or Twitter account, invite in your network, and whatever you say can be anonymous.

That means kids can cyber bully without their names attached. The website is new so not all schools are aware of it.
