Cyberbullying Prevention

Cyberbullying Prevention for Parents

Bullying is widespread and perhaps the most under reported safety problem on American school campuses. Contrary to popular belief, bullying occurs more often at school and in the victim’s digital environment. Once thought of as simply a rite of passage or relatively harmless behavior that helps build young people's character, bullying is now known to have long-lasting harmful effects, for both the victim and the bully. A complete list of helpful resources are available CLICK HERE.
