Why is Facebook number 1 for bullying if the gouvement cares then why don't they shut it down or something.I know we have freedom of speech but why is it like this i seem people committed suicide cause of this because they don't get accepted.

No. ASK.FM is because any anon can ask u questions or say comments

Nope, if you think about it. The people you add on "Facebook.com" reflect how much you get bullied. So make good friends; and you wont be bullied. Anyone who does attempt to bully you have the option to (block, delete & report). You may also get there account banned . If you are being bullied you should tell an adult. I get it you don't want to be called a "rat" or anything. But trust me it will help.To put it under conclusion, Facebook is as good as a website as you can make it. Add people who you know or your close friends. Don't add random people; Facebook also suggest that.

Its not bullying. Or maybe it is but I've never felt bullied on Facebook. Ask.fm and Formspring are the worst, anons can ask you questions and bully you. The government also cannot just shut down facebook. Its a company, they provide jobs, investor money, and provide their customers with something they like to use. The government does not have that power!

There are a bunch of different websites where teens get "cyber bullied" in fact, Facebook is very strict on bullying and self harm. Most of the bullying is done on websites like Formspring, Spillit, and now Ask.fm. This is because these websites allow you to go on "anonymous" and post on a users wall. Many people go on anonymous to post hateful things on users walls. Many teens commit suicide or harm themselves over the things people post. So, to answer your question, Facebook is NOT the number 1 source of bullying. There are many other sites that are way worse than Facebook. On Facebook you can block the person, on the other websites, you cannot.
