Social networks are necessary in our environment, we often ask young people to make responsible use of their mobile phones when adults are glued to them all day long. Taking a screenshot of a profile, sharing it with our WhatsApp contacts, laughing, making jokes, and even accepting comments that, outside the digital environment, would be unthinkable, can be the beginning of a bullying situation. If we see this example in teenagers, within an educational environment we throw our hands up in horror, but if adults do it, it is surely normalized. In this sense, we must all learn and know how to detect and reject those small actions that can be harmful to third parties.
Digital schooling is already a reality and codes of conduct, prevention and program management must be established, as well as evaluation and monitoring of reported incidents. Outside of the school environment, there must be digital education at home, with agreements adopted between the parties and with appropriate management of new technologies.
Training as a first step
Training for all those involved is necessary. Both parents and teachers must identify cyberbullying behaviors, as well as knowing which channels to use to report events that may violate the honor malta phone data of others. This training must also include raising awareness among minors and inviting them not to “look the other way” every time they see such behavior on social networks. Encouraging them to report and reporting when necessary. Remember, many times, the key is in the example.
In training, not only do you learn how to use digital parental control tools, you are encouraged to make agreements with young people, you are given tools so that they can be critical themselves, and you learn about the institutional tools that we currently have.
In short, common sense is very important, but the training of all those involved and knowing how to act and where to go is vital to ending cyberbullying. At Cursos Femxa we offer you the possibility of training with our Cyberbullying course .
