What is it? - Cyberbullying is bullying, but online. Social media makes it easier for people to bully someone behind a screen because it is less confrontational.
Be nice - Mean behavior is not okay, even online. You always treat others with respect and it's never okay to post hurtful or embarrassing things about someone.
If you are experiencing any type of cyberbullying there are many approaches on how to react:
Ignore - Sometimes bullies are encouraged by seeing a reaction.
Record - Easier to verify what happened and who the bully is.
Reach out - Get support when feeling upset by hurtful comments from a parent, teacher, counselor, or even a police officer.
