Abstract

The article addresses cyberbullying, or the sending or posting of harmful or cruel messages via the Internet or other digital means, as defined by Childnet International. A British survey showed that girls were more likely to be harassed by telephone, but text messaging, picture/video clips, and websites were common means of harassing boys. The facelessness of the attacker and the consequent unknown when and how of the next attack are especially traumatic for the victim.
