Cyberbullies
• March 08, 2005 – USA Today• "Cyberbullies, mostly ages 9 to 14, are using the
anonymity of the Web to mete out pain without witnessing the consequences," reports USA Today.
• Half of 3,000 U.S. children surveyed the past six months said they or someone they know have been victims or guilty of cyberbullying, Wired Safety says.
• Bullying isn't just for large males. Now anyone, male or female, with minimal technical skills can get into the act. But victims still tend to be kids seen as "different."
