Young people are not all bad and sometimes those categorized as "bad" do not realize or understand the severity of their actions. Parents, the simple fact is, no matter how much we love our little angels, sometimes they engage in behaviors of which we cannot approve, like cyberbullying. Then it is up to us as trusted adults to step in and work with our children to correct their behavior. But unlike physical bullying which may leave tangible signs (scratches, torn clothes, bruises), cyberbullying may be undetectable. So, how do you know if your children are engaging in cyberbullying behaviors?

1) They switch computer screens, close programs, or put away their cell phones when you’re nearby.

2) They laugh excessively while using the computer or cell phone.

3) They use multiple online accounts or an account that is not their own.

4) They have been involved in prior bullying situations, on or offline.
