What is Cyberbullying?
What? When a child, preteen or teen is tormented by another child, preteen or
teen using the Internet, interactive and digital technologies or mobile phones. It has to have a minor on both sides, or at least have been instigated by a minor against another minor.
How? The methods used are limited only by the child's imagination and access to
technology (Social networks, phones, chats…)
