In a survey carried out for Newsround, more than one in five

:00:28.:00:30.

10-to-12-year-olds who use social media said they'd been trolled

:00:31.:00:35.

Leah's been to meet some Year 7s in Sunderland

:00:47.:00:49.

to hear their experiences of social media.

:00:50.:00:54.

Facebook, Instagram and YouTube. Some of the world's most

:00:55.:01:00.

successful online companies. So for those of you who use social

:01:01.:01:04.

networks, what experience have you had on them, both good and bad?

:01:05.:01:11.

I have come along to this school and the north-east of

:01:12.:01:12.

England to find out. Well, I use Instagram, because it is

:01:13.:01:21.

really easy to get in touch with your friends. I have YouTube to just

:01:22.:01:26.

research videos and watch videos. The main one is like Instagram,

:01:27.:01:33.

Facebook and things like that. I signed up to Facebook because I

:01:34.:01:37.

wanted to talk to my friends outside of school if I couldn't see them in

:01:38.:01:41.

person. I looked at Instagram because it is kind of what everyone

:01:42.:01:47.

does. Newsround service and a massive 70% on 10-12 -year-olds have

:01:48.:01:52.

a social media account, despite rules saying you have to be 13 or

:01:53.:01:59.

over to sign up. Even though the survey found more than 70% of you

:02:00.:02:05.

found you are happy using social networking sites, it also found that

:02:06.:02:08.

many of you don't always have a great time. More than one in 510-12

:02:09.:02:13.

-year-olds with a social media Ken said they had been bullied or

:02:14.:02:19.

trolled online. I have experienced it, but it has been in private

:02:20.:02:24.

messages and I showed my mum. One of my friends has been quite badly

:02:25.:02:28.

bullied on a social network and it affected her quite bad, she has

:02:29.:02:33.

never been on it since. One of my friends had a YouTube account and I

:02:34.:02:37.

looked on the comments and I saw swearing, abusive language. I have

:02:38.:02:43.

never really seen any bullying going on and I have never been bullied. I

:02:44.:02:48.

haven't seen anyone but I know it can happen and it can be really bad,

:02:49.:02:53.

it can really hurt people. Are the social networks doing enough

:02:54.:02:59.

themselves to prevent bullying on their sites? They all have places

:03:00.:03:03.

where you can report bullying. But more than a third of you said the

:03:04.:03:06.

companies don't take bullying seriously enough.

:03:07.:03:08.

So that number, one in 510-12 -year-olds say they have been

:03:09.:03:19.

bullied online, it is quite a worry, what should you do if you are being

:03:20.:03:24.

bullied? -- one in five. Talk to someone, whether it is an adult you

:03:25.:03:29.

trust, a parent or a teacher, and they can help you, we know how

:03:30.:03:33.

difficult it can be to talk about and also learn how to block the

:03:34.:03:37.

bullies on which of the social networking site they are targeting

:03:38.:03:45.

you on and report them. And what to do if you are getting bullied. He

:03:46.:03:52.

also said that one in three 10-12 -year-olds said they didn't think

:03:53.:03:56.

the social networking sites are taking bullying seriously enough.

:03:57.:04:00.

Did you get in touch with any? Newsround contacted three of the

:04:01.:04:08.

biggest, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and also usual. Snapchat

:04:09.:04:11.

:04:12.:04:19.

did say that... YouTube also wouldn't give us an interview but

:04:20.:04:24.

they did stress that their site is for 13-year-olds and over. Facebook

:04:25.:04:28.

said they would give us an interview but only if we didn't talk about

:04:29.:04:32.

under 13 is, which of course, we couldn't agree to do.
