Q2) People get intimidated by TXT bullying, it's true, and here is the main reason why: People believe the threats the bully's make. Sadly, there are no laws that protect you. You just have to stand up for yourself. Q3) Because they want to make people feel bad, they insult you about how you look or they send you an embarrassing photo of yourself.

They don't text back only to ask "leave me alone or I'll call the police." Q5) Before text bullying there was verbal bullying & physical bullying. People can not block people when they get text bullied.
