In the article Ask.fm New Social Site Same bullying speaks about how social sites are being taken advantaged of and are used as a form of bullying. It also referred to as Cyber Bullying. In the article a mother states that her daughter was bullied on the site ask.fm. This site lets users ask question anonymously to each other. People would tell her go die or go drink bleach. One teenager even committed suicide, and the father blamed it on the site. Now the site is working on making its conditions better and "stepping up its game"
My opinion of this article is that social websites should set an age limits for teens and sites should make their conditions better and make sure people actually read the terms of service

Thought: Should social sites set a certain limit so teenagers won't get hurt and bullying wouldn't be a such a problem
I really agree with you. They should really force people to read the terms of service before actually joining and humiliate someone's life.
