Cyber bullying is growing just as the use of technology is growing. Cyber bullying is any type of bullying communicated through writing on a electronic device. Social media and text message are just a few vehicles for cyber bullying. Cyber bullying is different because it can occur at any place or any time. Parents can help their children not be cyber bullies or be cyber bullied by communicating with them about the effects.mparents should moniter their children's interaction using technology. If your child is cyber bullied, then they should save the evidence. You should also record the date and time of the incident. If your child is threatened, then you should contact the police. Communication is the most important thing a parent can do for their child about cyber bullying.
Reflection:
Cyber bullying is relevant in our culture today. I think teachers should always include cyber bullying when they mention bullying. Students need to understand that anything written in electronic devices never goes away even if it is deleted. As a teacher, I want my students to be informed about the severity of bullying. I will educate the parents on how to handle cyber bullying situations. I think cyber bullying needs to be taken very seriously as all times.
I believe it is more destructive than face to face bullying, because it can have a larger audience which leads to more embarrassment.
