As a study revealed earlier this year that online bullying has now overtaken traditional forms of bullying, with 12 % of children now
experiencing cyberbulling compared to 9 % face - to - face, it is important to educate young people, parents and teachers about the consequences and harmful effects bullying through technology can have.
They found that twenty - four percent had been a victim of one cyberbullying behavior, such as someone sending a threatening or insulting message, 15.9 said they
experienced two bullying behaviors and 8 percent were victimized by three
cyberbulling behaviors.
