4 How to prevent cyberbullying?
All of us should know how to avoid cyberbullying and use proper netiquette when
creating relationships online.
Encourage teenagers to appropriately limit what they post online.

Victims of cyberbullying should change their online accounts in order to prevent further harassment.

Parents and other adults responsible for the safety of teenagers should get involved by appropriate
monitoring of online activities. Teaching appropriate online behaviors to teens is also important.

HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF:


• Make the most of privacy settings. Investigate what measures you can take to keep content private on
the websites you use.

• Think before you post. Never forget that the internet is public. What you put out there can never be
erased. If you wouldn’t say something in a room full of strangers, don’t say it via internet.

• Keep personal information personal. Don’t reveal identifying details about yourself—address, phone
number, school, credit card number, etc.
Remember

"We live in a time and age where information is


just a button press away. If used in the correct way
technology is a boon for mankind."
