Internet Safety For Children

Hello, I am an 8th grader doing a persuasive speech on internet safety. I wanted to know some of the suicides, or even deaths that have been brought on by harsh internet use leading to people hurting themselves because of it. And there was a young girl on the news recently that took her own life because of it. If you know her name, could you tell me? And if you have any tips to help me reach into the audience to stop their child from doing this.. For having a relative that isn’t careful on the internet, I’m very serious about this topic. Thank you very much.
