Bullying • Cyber-Bullying • Suicide • Based on a Shocking and Twisted TRUE STORY
‘From Under The Bridge: When Bullies Become Trolls’ was inspired by, and is based on the true story of Megan Meier, who took her own life 3 weeks prior to her 14th birthday after a severe cyber-bullying attack.
BULLYING and CYBER-BULLYING continue to rise, while seriously affecting, damaging and destroying lives. And with over 4.66 billion people accessing the internet across the globe (60% of the world's population), the stage, platforms, opportunities and techniques for CYBER-BULLYING are dramatically and continuously expanding and exploding! Of the 4.66 billion people accessing the internet across the globe, 4.33 use social media (93%).
Sadly, CYBER-BULLYING is a prominent and powerful relative trend, which is growing at a frightening pace. Bullying has become possible from anywhere in the world, with far more anonymity than ever, while the absence of accountability and responsibility soars. We must all recognize this massive problem and 'be the change'.
