We’ve all watched celebrities read mean tweets and found it to be absolutely hilarious.

But what happens when kids read mean tweets about themselves? The results are far from funny.

Canadian Safe School Network posted this video online to remind us, as parents, that cyber bullying isn’t a laughing matter, and that it can have a huge effect on our kids.



Watch the incredibly moving video below…

  • No, no cyber bullying. Just the constant, day to day harassment. Where they would actually wait for my daughter to walk in the school gate and they would start

  • Watching this video, especially the last child made me so sad. In an age when we are supposed to be smarter, children think it’s normal or acceptable to write such horrendous things. Are the parents of these bullies aware of how their children are behaving??

  • My son was bullied at Primary School, and thankfully he has not been cyberbullied. It’s something we talk about constantly and are very aware of. I follow him on Twitter and Instagram – these are the only 2 forms of social media he is currently on.

  • This is why I don’t let my daughter have social media at 11. She is one of only a handful of kids in her class that doesn’t have her own Facebook page, I think parents should realise you need to be 16 to have an account for a reason!

  • This is so disturbing! To think each of these young people that have been affected by these bullies, it must surely makes the parents of the bullies responsible.

  • Why would you give children mobile phones with such capabilities? What happened to “restricted” mobile phones which allow them to ring or contact only certain phone numbers inclding emergency services?
    Some transport companies use them so I know they exist (or used to).
