Cyber Bullying: A serious matter

by EPI Staff on February 10, 2010

Q: I recently discovered that my son’s schoolmate is making fun of him on Facebook (though not yet offline).  Should I complain to the school?

A: Yes.  Cyber bullying is serious.  Go to the principal first:  If it’s happening on school Internet systems, the school may be legally required to take action.  Also, you can file a complaint with the website involved or the bully’s Internet service provider or cell phone company.  For details, see cyberbully.org.
