Impact of Cyberbullying
When kids experience cyberbullying, they experience a variety of physical, psychological, and emotional consequences. Consequently, they may complain of everything from fear and anxiety to depression and low self-esteem. They also may struggle academically and report feelings of significant distress. In fact, more than 30% of kids who are targeted by cyberbullies report experiencing symptoms of stress. 6 ﻿﻿﻿﻿
Victims of cyberbullying also find it difficult to feel safe and may feel alone and isolated, 2 ﻿﻿﻿﻿ especially if they are being ostracized by their peers. Cyberbullying also can lead to increasing levels of anxiety and depression. One study found that as many as 93% of kids victimized by cyberbullies reported feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and powerlessness. 2 ﻿﻿﻿﻿
If your child is being targeted by cyberbullying, it's important that you work with them to report the cyberbullying and do everything you can to get the victimization to stop.
