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.
