After the police, who never came back after 24 hours Amy Louise Paul's mother got even furious. "People sweep it under the carpet but they are playing with children's lives. My daughter was in such a terrible state", Lisa, Amy's mother, said. The bully who was responsible for the Facebook group was forced to take down the page by their head teacher, although Amy Louise still had thoughts that people would still be talking about the Facebook group and that there would be even more negative comments about her. Later, Child Line eventually helped Amy Louise after she reached them through their website. It is said that the adults who grew up in the world when there was no technology may struggle to understand the impact of Cyber Bullying. NSPCC reveals that 38% of young people have been affected by Cyber Bullying and states that 24% have received abusive text messages and the rest abusive emails. Cyber Bullying leads children to depression and anxiety, others have taken their own lives. Amy Louise urges that if anyone is suffering from Cyber Bullying to seek for help, especially with Child Line. Amy says that if it wasn't for Child Line she wouldn't be here today. Amy Louise finally has been able to move from her past and is really looking towards the future. Now Amy is off to college to study law, politics, and English.
