Things to do if your child is being cyberbullied: 1. Prepare to talk - listen to what they have to say, believe them, and stay positive. 2. Talk about the issue - remain calm and nonjudgmental, do not blame your child for being a target, and reassure them the issue will be taken care of. 3. Show empathy - if you’ve been bullied talk to your child about it, this will encourage them to talk to you about what happened. 4. Prepare a plan of action - ask your child how you can help them, take screenshots of the messages, and report them to the school or local authorities.
