2. What is Cyber Bullying?
"Cyber bullying" is when a child or teen is tormented,
threatened, harassed, humiliated, embarrassed or
otherwise targeted by another child or teen using the
Internet, interactive or digital technologies or cell
phones. It has to have a minor on both sides, or at least
have been instigated by a minor against another minor.
When adults become involved it is classified as
something different.
