Hey, Lifebabblers.

0:00:080:00:09

Today we're talking about cyberbullying.

0:00:090:00:12

We know it happens, and, unfortunately,

0:00:120:00:14

it can be a lot easier to cyberbully than you might think.

0:00:140:00:18

So, what exactly is cyberbullying?

0:00:180:00:21

Cyberbullying is when someone or a group of people

0:00:240:00:27

uses the internet, e-mail,

0:00:270:00:28

online games or any other form of digital technology to threaten,

0:00:280:00:32

tease, humiliate or upset someone else.

0:00:320:00:35

It can feel like it's happening 24/7.

0:00:350:00:37

Being a part of cyberbullying can also be easier than you think.

0:00:370:00:42

Cyberbullying can be...

0:00:420:00:43

Clicking to like or thumbs up something negative

0:00:430:00:45

posted about someone else.

0:00:450:00:47

Sharing a photo with someone without their permission.

0:00:470:00:50

Or sending insensitive e-mails or texts.

0:00:500:00:52

Cyberbullying can be extremely upsetting.

0:00:550:00:59

Think about how you would feel

0:00:590:01:00

if someone was posting or writing

0:01:000:01:03

the same things about you.

0:01:030:01:05

If you've done something like this, you need to realise that

0:01:050:01:08

everything you do online can have a consequence.

0:01:080:01:12

Delete the posts or comments

0:01:120:01:15

and say sorry -

0:01:150:01:16

it could mean a lot to that person.

0:01:160:01:19

Always think before you post something online.

0:01:190:01:22

Online bullying is very serious

0:01:460:01:48

and can be 24/7.

0:01:480:01:50

You can feel scared...

0:01:500:01:51

-..upset...

-..embarrassed,

0:01:510:01:53

or like everyone is against you.

0:01:530:01:54

Being bullied can cause

0:01:540:01:56

a rollercoaster of emotions like...

0:01:560:01:57

-feeling alone...

-..fear...

0:01:570:01:58

-..confusion...

-..anger...

0:01:580:02:00

-..sadness...

-..frustration...

0:02:000:02:01

-..anxiety...

-..and worthlessness.

0:02:010:02:03

Some people who are bullied find themselves doing things

0:02:030:02:06

that they wouldn't usually do in order to cope.

0:02:060:02:08

And often they don't want to tell anyone

0:02:080:02:10

because they're too scared to.

I was bullied at school and also online.

0:02:150:02:18

It really affected my mood and my confidence

0:02:180:02:21

because the words put me down.

0:02:210:02:23

I moved schools, and my drama and dance helped me a lot.

0:02:230:02:27

Now I have new friends and they've helped me be a lot happier.

0:02:270:02:31

Nobody has the right

0:02:310:02:32

to make you feel this way.

0:02:320:02:34

If you are being bullied online, it's a really good idea

0:02:340:02:37

to talk about it with somebody you trust.

0:02:370:02:39

It could be a teacher, family member,

0:02:390:02:41

friend or a counsellor.

0:02:410:02:43

There are ways

0:02:430:02:45

to stop cyberbullying.

0:02:450:02:46

The first step is to talk to someone

0:02:460:02:48

and get some help.

0:02:480:02:49

There are two things that you need to think about

0:02:490:02:51

when you're being cyberbullied.

0:02:510:02:53

Stopping it from happening online,

0:02:530:02:55

but also from happening in your own head.

0:02:550:02:57

You can get help to do both.

0:02:570:02:59

Remember, you are not alone.

0:02:590:03:02

With the right support,

0:03:020:03:04

things can get better.

One of my friends was bullied online and he didn't know what to do.

0:03:080:03:11

I showed him how to report it so the person who was bullying him

0:03:110:03:15

got reported and he is no longer bothered

0:03:150:03:18

and he feels OK about it now.

0:03:180:03:20

Yes, I've experienced cyberbullying.

0:03:220:03:24

Websites that allow anonymous posts are the worst. Turn them off.

0:03:240:03:28

You can also see a long stream of comments

0:03:280:03:31

from not very nice people

0:03:310:03:32

from old statuses that are posted back in the day.

0:03:320:03:34

However, today I think I'm pretty good at looking past them

0:03:340:03:38

and just shrugging them off.

0:03:380:03:39

We're out of time again
