Cyber Bullying
Ricardo's Story
Do you think Ricardo is a cyberbully?
What does Ricardo mean when he says that information “gets
around really quick”?
Ricardo thinks that harassing others on the Internet, rather than
in person, appeals to some teenagers because they can’t be attacked physically. What do you
think?
Have you ever encountered online cruelty?
How do you think someone might feel after being the target of it?

Stacey's Story
How Targets and Upstanders Can De-escalate Online Cruelty
Ignore and block the bully. Offenders often want attention. Take it away and they may give
up.
Save the evidence. You may need it later for documentation.
Change your privacy settings. Allow only people you trust to
see or comment on your pages.
Tell trusted friends and adults. Create a support network.
Upstanders:
• Stand up to the offender when appropriate. If you see something negative, say something. Make it clear that you think online cruelty is wrong, and tell the offender to back off. (It may be easier to do this if you have good standing with the offender.)
• Point out the bully’s motivation to the target. Comfort the target by explaining that many offenders act cruelly just to gain control, power, or status.
• Help the target advocate. Help the target find friends and school leaders who can help de-escalate the situation. It’s easier to stand up to cruelty when you are not alone.
