2. What is Cyberbullying?
Cyberbullying is bullying that takes place over digital devices like cell
phones, computers, and tablets. Cyberbullying can occur through
SMS, Text, and apps, or online in social media, forums, or gaming
where people can view, participate in, or share content. Cyberbullying
includes sending, posting, or sharing negative, harmful, false, or mean
content about someone else. It can include sharing personal or private
information about someone else causing embarrassment or
humiliation. Some cyberbullying crosses the line into unlawful or
criminal behavior.

10. HOW TO PREVENT CYBERBULLYING?
The easiest path that could be taken is to stay away from the bully
and ignore the person. But since cyberbullying takes place via the
medium of the Internet and the victims are children or young adults,
it would be a difficult path to follow. Parents and schools need to
step in to prevent cyberbullying. Schools and colleges should have
an active anti-bullying policy. If such cases are found, schools
should invoke counseling via therapists. You need to be aware that
both the victim and the bully need counseling
