Safe Internet Use
Cyberbullying is the use of technology to hurt someone else. This can have social, psychological and physical impacts.
Cyberbullying can occur in many ways, including:
• abusive texts and emails
• hurtful messages, images or videos
• imitating others online
• excluding others online
• humiliating others online
• nasty online gossip and chat
Right now there are many young people who experience cyberbullying. By reporting it, talking about it and supporting each other we can stop it.
What you can do about being bullied online:
• Talk to someone you trust straight away. This might be a parent, sibling, uncle/aunt, teacher or friend, or contact Kids Helpline.
• Don’t retaliate or respond, they might use it against you.
• Block the bully and change your privacy settings.
• Report the abuse to the service and get others to as well.
• Collect evidence. Keep mobile phone messages, screen shots and print emails or social networking conversations.
• Do something you enjoy. Catch-up with friends, listen to music, watch a good show or chat online to people you can trust.
• Remember you didn’t ask for this and you will get through it. Nobody deserves to be bullied.
