What do you do about cyber bullying?

1. Prevent it.• Do NOT post in anger or frustration.• It is not entertainment.• Think about what you are posting.

2. Take action. Ignore or block it. Don’t respond. Put a stop to it! Report bullying behavior

to a trusted adult, the school, police, ISP, cell phone service, or host site (Facebook, YouTube, etc.).

Don’t pass it on to others.
