Thank you so much for your time with our pupils at our school. Several parents and our school's principal, Ms. Rogers, informed me about how you influenced our students. One eighth-grade girl, who seldom speaks about her day at school, hopped in the van and said, "Mom, we had the most incredible speaker today!" Another 8th student had the terrible decision to speak smack about a 7th grader on Facebook that night, and the 7th grader took your advise and gathered proof, printed it out, and sent it to the principal the following day. It's game over! My son, who had been fussing with me over giving me access to his Facebook, consented to let me be his âfriendâ on that website. He then went into his account and removed himself from various networks, as per your suggestion, and changed his privacy settings to "friends only." Today, so many of our youngsters were affected by your precise guidance and beautiful manner. We look forward to welcoming you back to our school on a regular basis. Your advise is priceless for children of all ages. Kirsten Flegel, Vice President of the Middle School PSTA at North Broward Preparatory School

Cyberbullying: How Common Is It?
When witnesses are put in a conflict situation, they are likewise traumatized. Most youngsters are obliged to assume the role of the attacker in order to avoid being a victim. If a defender arrives in the group, they must endure enormous pressure from the aggressive majority. Unfortunately, cyberbullying often originates in a school setting. As a result, both parents and instructors must pay great attention to the environment in the classroom.
