This video demonstrates how a child's emotional wellbeing can be destroyed by cyber bullying. As our use of technology increases, our empathy and compassion for fellow human beings seems to be diminishing. The ease of being 'evil' increases as people hide behind screens and act in an easily and sometimes almost instantly created pack of like-minded sickos.
The solution to cyber bullying in childhood is not, as this video indicates, countering the online negativity by standing up for the victim but removing children from the snake pit. Do not give your child access to social media, do not give them a smartphone, do not allow them to socialise in cyberspace. Monitor their internet use. Do not allow them to have internet access out of your sight.
Give your child a childhood by removing them from the technological torture chamber.
