Tips for Preventing Cyberbullying
BROOKE RUSSELL, 10th PERIOD
Keep Calm!
If you ever feel angry while chatting with your friends online, take a deep breath and calm down before responding.
Help the Victim!
Help the victim who was cyberbullied. One small action could change everything.
Always Think
Before you post something rude, think about what you're saying. Will it hurt somebody's feelings?
NEVER Get Involved!
Even though you might want to break up an online fight going on, don't jump in, because it might make things even worse.
Tell An Adult!
If you are ever cyberbullied, tell a trusted adult and report the cyberbully.
