Real life
Here are a few things that have been sent to children who have been cyberbullied.
Think about how you would feel if it were you.
I told my friend my Facebook password and when we fell out she ed nasty messages to my other friends so now they are not talking to me.
Someone took a picture of me being pushed, over on their phone and sent it to everyone in my class.
Someone keeps ringing my phone laughing and hanging up. I don’t know who it is.
This week I have had 4 Whatsapp’s saying
“I hate you”.

7. Action – What Should I do?
The first step is to tell someone – be SMART
You can tell an adult, a friend, or report the bully to the website.
Then…
Block the bully from your phone, chats, Facebook etc
Keep the messages as evidence
Don’t share your passwords with anyone.
Don’t reply

8. Getting Rid of Cyberbullying
Think carefully about what you say and write online and in texts.
If anyone shows you a cruel message or picture, don’t laugh, show it to other people or forward it on, report it.
Send or forward nice messages and you’ll probably get one back
