Cyberbullying

Cyberbullying can be defined as using technology such as cell phones or computers and the internet to bully and intimidate someone else.  Once only a problem on the playground at recess, bullying has now taken a new and dangerous form by using text messages, chat rooms, and social networking sites to spread hate messages through cyberbullying.

For information on Cyberbullying, check out this page from the Center for Missing and Exploited Children.  This site has some excellent videos regarding cyberbullying and internet safety.
