parents that develops the character of the child. Parents find themselves in
one in all the simplest positions to spot if their child has experienced or
participated in cyberbullying. Parents also are the sole ones within the
position to watch what social media platforms their child is using. Therefore,
parents must educate their children in suitable ways to use social media. this
could include encouraging open conversation between parents and child about what
they see on social media and what to try and do if they feel uncomfortable.
They also can set a limit for their children from accessing the internet and
other electronic media devices. Access to the internet should be controlled
through parental control and the use of encryption devices used to access the
internet. According to Patricia (from
the scholastic article), this solves the problem of access to harmful
substances on the internet by young adults by blocking it through the use of
passwords. Addressing the risks of social media with teens will allow students
to feel comfortable discussing cyberbullying when it occurs. This way, victims
or witnesses of cyberbullying will feel comfortable reporting offences to those
in authority.
Before solving problems, we should always dig at the root causes. One of the reasons for cyberbullying to occur is that the cyberbullies think that it is fun to see people struggling. They feel powerful while bullying others through the internet. This behaviour is simply building their happiness on someone else’s pain. School involvement can function as an efficient solution to ease some serious cyberbullying situations. Schools play an important role in solving cyberbullying. This is a phase where children to start to create up their personalities and that we need to strike while the iron is hot. Researchers Agatston, Kowalski, and Limber recommend schools to carry cyberbullying prevention programs like classroom lessons being dispensed to endure all of the students understand the consequences of cyberbullying and all forms of cyberbullying which include negative messaging, repeatedly harass, dissing, and trolling. In these classes, teachers which act as our second parents should guide children about what action a bystander can carry out once they witness a cyberbullying. For instance, the simpler one, making a report by clicking the report button on Facebook. This issue will stop when the victims or the bystanders speak up. In a nutshell, do not keep the problems, speak up, and let others help you if you can’t solve them by yourself.
Furthermore, mostly cyberbullying
happening within the social media platforms. Facebook, Instagram and Twitter
are the three most well-liked social media platforms. Social media has proven
that it can have a positive impact in numerous ways, however people nowadays
fall to the negative consequences. These platforms have some preventative
methods to discourage cyberbullying. Cyberbullying policies are enforced
through self-regulatory mechanisms in social media. They offer options for when
the cyberbullying occurs. For example, many sites offer the ability to block
and report a particular user or flag certain posts as aggressive. Both the
victim and people who witness bullying can report the posts. Some companies
also develop educational materials in cooperation with e-safety nongovernmental
organizations (NGOs) that teach children about positive online relationships in
an attempt to stop bullying and also got supervised machine learning as
anti-bullying educational materials. There are so many ways that social media
can affect us either positively or negatively. Social networking sites are not
going to go away, however, we have to aware and obey the terms and conditions
applied by the social sites to become a good social media user.
