Cyberbullying

Cyberbullying is when someone uses technology to harass, threaten, embarrass, or target another person. It happens on devices like smartphones, computers, tablets, and gaming systems. Cyberbullying hurts people, and in some cases, is against the law. 

What to look for:

You are being cyberbullied if: you receive mean, threatening, or abusive texts, emails, or social media posts and comments (either from someone you know or a stranger); someone keeps sending you harassing messages; or photos or videos of you are shared to try to embarrass or hurt you.
