Cyber-Bullies

Cyber-Bullies use the internet or cellphones to say mean things or spread rumors about other people. Remember, if you are ever bullied TELL SOMEONE!

You don't have to be alone with your feelings.

Bullies are usually mad or sad about something...something that has NOTHING to do with you.

INTERNET SAFETY TIPS

*If you are surfing the net and you enter a website that makes you feel uncomfortable or scared tell someone RIGHT AWAY.

*Protect yourself. NEVER send personal information about yourself into cyberspace unless you talk to your parents FIRST.

*Keep your private information private—your telephone number and address should NOT be sent out into cyberspace.

*Before sending ANYONE your picture or ANY information about yourself, make sure to check with your parents FIRST!

*Don’t keep secrets. Keep your parents in the loop about what you are doing and where you are going on the internet. They can help you to stay safe!

*If you get a mean or nasty message or a message that makes you feel uncomfortable, TELL SOMEONE YOU TRUST. It is NEVER YOUR FAULT if you get a message that makes you feel uncomfortable.

*Never give out your password to someone other than your parents. NOT EVEN YOUR BEST FRIEND. Your password is yours. Protect your password and protect yourself!

*Protect your computer. Before downloading ANY software, check with your parents FIRST.

*Set up a meeting with your parents or caregivers to talk about internet safety. It’s always good to talk about ways to keep safe. Maybe you could even teach your parents a thing or two about internet safety!
