Cyber Bullying – In this video Tina Meier talks to two powerful yet caring attributes to support someone who is potentially being cyber bullied:-
- Adults and parents or caregivers, if you want to help young people who are being bullied, then listen up! There is so much power in listening.
- Young people, teens and students. Stand up for each other in your classes! Be supportive. You never know what someone is going through. Support empowers and can change or save a life.
Fake Social Media Accounts
