The more time we spend on line and the more we rely on the technology, the more opportunity there is for the darker side of our society to take advantage.
Nowhere is it more evident than the growing problem of cyber bullying.
We can, however, turn the tables. There are a myriad of online resources about cyber bullying to help us become a little more prepared, more supportive and more educated on what can happen and what to do if bullying raises it’s ugly head in our lives.

A great place to begin is http://www.bullying.org/. One of the oldest sites, Bullying.org was started in response to the Taber, Alberta tragedy, in which a young man, the victim of relentless bullying, went on a shooting rampage in 1999. The site is dedicated to education and prevention; it’s a terrific resource for both youth and adults.
