The Revealers

In the novel, The Revealers, the students of Parkland Middle felt connected through SchoolStream or as the students called it KidNet where they were able to chat or instant message. Most of you do this nightly through MSN Messenger. With KidNet and MSN nobody could break into or eavesdrop on your conversation without it being known. Not anymore. Today’s technology allows you to assume the identity of another person. Do you really know whom you are talking to in the cyber world?

It is 10:00 pm on a Wednesday night; you have finished your homework and you are chatting on MSN with three other friends. After 10 minutes two more friends ask to join the chat. By 10:30 pm five more people have joined and it is fun; however, there is a joke said about one of the people, rapidly followed by an insult. At first, no one knows how to respond, then seconds later a message pops up stating, “I didn’t say that! It isn’t me saying these things. Someone is using my name. What is going on here?”

What is the issue involved in this scenario? Why is this serious?
The issue issue involved in this situation is that the victum feels hurt. this could be serious because tehy might be scared to go to school
and may be scared because they think the bully might attack again.

What would be a responsible way to handle this situation?
The responsible way to handle this situation is to say sorry to the person that you hurt. if they dont exept your apology
i think you should just start to act nice to them then say sorry.

this situation could be solved my saying sorry and just be your self the three main charecters form the revelers can say sorry or just stay away and leave

Blog Question: Is bullying a rite of passage of childhood and adolescence? Is it apart of the maturation process one needs to go through to reach adulthood? Explain. Mrs. Hogeboom brings up this topic on page 108.

Well i don't think bulling is a good idea when you area kid because then you would take that physical stuff to reach adolescence and then to your adult hood. Yes and i am saying this all kids do bully in some way because its its just how people go through life.
