Recently, there have been a ton of campaigns developing that try to convince people that cyber bullying is a severe and dangerous concern. Many schools and organizations have a zero tolerance policy for bullying. These guidelines and strict rules are laid out on day one. If one does not abide by these rules, they will most likely have restrictions or even be kicked out of the school or organization immediately. People need to know that if it’s not OK to say it in person, it’s not OK to say it on the web. A simple comment could ruin someone’s entire day.
The most helpful advice would probably be these simple guidelines. If you are the victim of cyberbullying:
1. don't respond
2. don't fight back or make threats toward the bully
3. talk to a trusted adult
4. most importantly: SAVE THE EVIDENCE.
