Wow, a super simple set of steps to stop cyberbullying from happening to your kid...

Children have the right to be protected from being hurt and mistreated, physically or mentally, they have a right to privacy. We all share a collective responsibility to guarantee these rights are enforced and enable children and young people to play, learn, develop, and participate, both offline and online.

About one in four children experience cyberbullying at some point in their lives. The impact of cyberbullying on victims is well known; it affects their self-esteem, school performance and can even lead to suicidal thoughts and attempts. Cyberbullying also has an impact on perpetrators, bystanders, parents and schools. Therefore this video is intended as a tool for all concerned:

Parents: Teach your kids empathy and talk with them about their online activities.
Teachers: Help kids understand the line between funny and cruel and develop an antibullying charter in your school.
Kids: If you witness cyberbullying, report it and offer your support.

Our objective is that this short educational video is seen by as many people as possible, because only together can we achieve what we set out to do, Delete Cyberbullying. Join us, take a stand against cyberbullying and speak out for our children's right to be safe.
