It’s a big part of our lives. • But communicating with someone online is just like talking to them in real life. • • Everyone appreciates politeness and no one likes it when people make fun, or spread gossip, rumors or lies. • • The fact is that some people do try to hurt others online. • • It’s called – cyber bullying – and it’s a lose-lose situation: • • It makes the person being harassed feel bad – and it makes the bully look bad. • • It might lead to trouble with school authorities or even the police. • • If someone is harassing you online, it’s important not to respond. • • That’s because bullies are looking for a reaction. Block them if you can, ignore them if you can’t. • • If it continues, save the evidence and ask an adult for help. • • And don't be afraid to stand up for yourself, or to stand up for someone else being cyber bullied. • • This behavior usually stops pretty quickly when someone speaks up. • • And when you’re communicating online – remember to treat people the way you’d like to be treated. • • Know how to handle yourself, because being online is part of your life. • • So stop and think before you click. • ****************************** • The Federal Trade Commission deals with issues that touch the economic life of every American.
