Is Gossip Harmful?

Picture From: nydailynews.com

I do believe that gossip can be harmful, especially if you purposely trying to embarrass them or make them upset. And sometimes you don't even say anything bad and the person you told can twist what you say and make it hurtful gossip. Gossip can scar a person and make people not be able to trust anyone. Gossip can ruin friendships that you have had for a long time and can also affect future friendships. So it can be harmful, it can bring a person down and that can bring them to hurt themselves or others. So I do believe that gossip can be very harmful.
