Steps to take on to help educate your child on Cyber Bully
Steps to take on on to help educate your child on Cyber Bully
1. Tell your kids to keep personal information, inappropriate comments and private photos to themselves. Cyber bullies trick victims, or the victim’s friends, into revealing personal or embarrassing information online and then sending it to others. Make sure your kids understand that nothing they post to Facebook, email or send over a mobile phone is truly private. This includes personal photos and comments about a teacher or someone they know. Even a friend can send it on to others, perhaps inadvertently. For example, if they are not using privacy settings correctly or have authorized “friends of friends” to see their photos, your private photo may end up with someone who can use it abusively. Be especially careful with a “friend” met online whose real identity is unknown. Experts agree that most often cyber bullies know their victims.
2. Advise your kids to never give their passwords to anyone other than you, the parent. Even to a close friend, who might accidentally pass it on or even abuse the trust in a moment of anger or poor judgment. Stealing passwords and sending cruel or untrue messages while posing as someone else is a favorite trick of cyber bullies.
3. If they see bullying, make sure they know not to laugh or join in. Besides the bully and the victim, there are often bystanders who either compound the problem with more teasing, or stand by and do nothing. Teach your children that cyber bullying is wrong and if they see it, that they should not join in nor stand idly by, but should speak out against it and tell you or another trusted adult what is happening.
4. If someone is trying to bully your child online, teach him or her not to react. Ideally, if they suspect something, they should not even read it, first because it can be upsetting and second because getting angry or responding in any way only gives the bully what he or she wants. Help your child understand the bravest and smartest thing they can do is to walk away from it and let you know.
5. Talk to your teachers and school administrators. Cyber bullying is new to all of us, and educators and legislators are trying to understand how to best handle this problem. You can help protect your child and their friends by talking to your school system to see what sort of policies and educational programs they are putting in place, and by making sure they treat this issue as a priority. Educators, administrators and counselors can work to raise awareness of cyber bullying and even help prevent it by teaching children what constitutes bullying and making it more socially unacceptable among peers.

The Cyberbullying Research Center also did a series of surveys that found these cyber bullying statistics:
- Over 80 percent of teens use a cell phone regularly, making it the most popular form of technology and a common medium for cyber bullying
- About half of young people have experienced some form of cyber bullying, and 10 to 20 percent experience it regularly
- Mean, hurtful comments and spreading rumours are the most common type of cyber bullying
- Girls are at least as likely as boys to be cyber bullies or their victims
- Boys are more likely to be threatened by cyber bullies than girls
- Cyber bullying affects all races
- Cyber bullying victims are more likely to have low self esteem and to consider suicide
Parents and teens can do some things that help reduce the cyber bullying statistics:
- Talks to teens about cyber bullying, explaining that it is wrong and can have serious consequences. Make a rule that teens may not send mean or damaging messages, even if someone else started it, or suggestive pictures or messages or they will lose their cell phone and computer privileges for a time.
- Encourage teens to tell an adult if cyber bullying is occurring. Tell them if they are the victims they will not be punished, and reassure them that being bullied is not their fault.
- Teens should keep cyber bullying messages as proof that the cyber bullying is occurring. The teens' parents may want to talk to the parents of the cyber bully, to the bully's Internet or cell phone provider, and/or to the police about the messages, especially if they are threatening or sexual in nature.
- Try blocking the person sending the messages. It may be necessary to get a new phone number or email address and to be more cautious about giving out the new number or address.
