In case the link below does not work for some of you:

Apparently the problem of cyberbullying has been on the increase in some Australian high schools. I think that in cases where victims are driven to suicide the bullying has been going on for long periods of time and outside of the Internet. The Internet seems to become an aggravating factor and ity is used as a further avenue to victimize those already being bullied in schools.

It seems that the government in Australia is studying the problem and trying to help parents and teachers identify the problem. In one of the stories in that same newspaper it said that teens were using Facebook as a way to bully other children and as a way to spread malicious gossip against their teachers.

I think the only way to deal with this is for parents to pay close attention to what their kids do online. I see no other way to prevent this because once kids are out of school their actions are beyond the control of their teachers.

Übergeek 바둑이: It must be a "sign of the times", but what we have read about teenagers in other parts of the world for so long now seems to be happening in Australia....perhaps it is worse when it happens "in our own backyard"

Übergeek 바둑이: Bullying is a big problem in the US. Some states have passed laws against it. Emails & online behavior can be included in the evidence. I don't know who much it is being enforced & how effective they are. But, u are correct, it's important for parents to be in touch w/ their kids behavior - both online or off.

Ferris Bueller: Some states! Here at school there is a country wide ban. It is not acceptable. Also the rules (due to incidents) do extend into the realm of the internet, yet such rules were already there in some respects re the ban on internet stalking and other cyber crimes. Such as spreading hate and 'isms to which several people have found themselves before the beak.
