www.cpanb-apcnb.ca Crime Prevention Association of NB Inc 23 Don’t engage in online exchanges with cyberbullies and encourage your friends not to either. Don’t erase or delete messages – they can be saved in a file if you need them for evidence when you are making a report against a cyberbully. Block the sender’s email—right click on the address—click on block. Stand up for your friends who are targeted. Refuse to go along with bullying or harassment—youth who laugh, agree or cheer only encourage the behaviour. Instead, take the side of the youth who is being targeted. Be assertive but not aggressive. Using insults or fighting back will make the situation worse. Gather your friends to help speak out against bullying and harassment. Always make sure you are safe. If it is not safe to intervene, report what you see or hear to an adult. Ask your school to form an anti-bullying committee with representation from teachers, parents and students. Collectively, you can make a big difference!
