Thank you for this blog post. I currently work in a high school setting as a mental health counselor. The issue of bullying is a huge problem. The majority of cases I see in regards to bullying involve social media. The newest update to Twitter that allowed polling, caused havoc of rating each other, good and bad. As fast as the polls are taken down, new ones are posted. It polarizes students and creates a desire for them to have “revenge” and retaliate online. Getting the students to do a face to face remediation has been the most helpful, with a counselor present to help moderate emotions. Getting parents involved is another helpful tool, many parents do not want to admit their child is part of the problem.
