When 'digital bullying' goes too far | CNET News.com: "Two years ago, Ryan routinely spent two to three hours a night instant messaging with classmates. Then he noticed a pattern: 'It made me feel terrible.'
Kids, the 13-year-old said, spent the better part of their evenings insulting one another online. 'They'd start getting really mad at you, and sometimes it wouldn't even make sense,' said the Manhattan teenager, who asked that his last name not be used. 'It made me really cautious about what people were really saying behind my back. Leaving IM and walking around, I still was thinking about it. It felt really horrible.'"
