How can I prevent cyberbullying among teenagers?
assistant
To prevent cyberbullying among teenagers, one of the first steps is to encourage open and honest communication. Encourage teens to think before they post online and to be aware of the long-term consequences of their actions. Let them know that they have the right to report cyberbullying if they experience it. Advise teens to not respond to cyberbullies and not to engage in any online arguments. Remind teens that they can block people that repeatedly send unpleasant online messages. Building peer support networks and teaching teens to recognize and empathize with each other’s feelings can also help prevent cyberbullying.
