My answer is: NOOOOO!!!!! DEFINITLY NOT!! This is because, according to research, cyber bullying (uses words) is more destructive than physical bullying as cyber bullies do not need to be there to bully. The victim will feel just as hurt and the insults will remain with them FOREVER!!! Also, even though the bullies just want to have fun and/or joke around, they do not know that what they have done/are doing causes the victim to feel emotionally stressed and hurt; some of these cases even lead to the victim commiting suicide. Therefore, it is NOT true that words can never hurt us.
Bye!
