Bullying is repeatedly and deliberately upsetting someone
through aggressive or threatening behaviour. Cyber bullying is
bullying using digital technology, like the internet or a mobile
phone. It can include: - Abusive texts, tweets, emails or
Facebook posts - Constant harassing messages - Sharing
inappropriate images - Posting unkind message or images -
Imitating others online - Excluding others online -
Inappropriate image tagging - Inappropriate discussions All
bullying is nasty, but cyber bullying is different because it
can reach a larger audience much faster, it’s hard to escape,
and messages posted publicly are hard to remove. The good news
is you can take control. You can plan your response in private,
with people you trust. And most bullies aren’t technological
hackers, so it’s easy to identify them, track them down and
block the bullying. If you or someone you know need someone to
talk to, for any reason, about anything, you can visit
