One in four have had it happen more than once * 35 percent of kids have been threatened online. Nearly one in five had had it happen more than once. * 21 percent of kids have received mean or threatening e-mails or other messages. * 58 percent of kids admit someone has said mean or hurtful things to them online. More than four out of ten say it has happened more than once. * 58 percent have not told their parents or an adult about something mean or hurtful that happened to them online.Note the relatively vague reference to ages.I see all parties involved as ... well, involved.

Quote from: Galileo The Hutt on September 15, 2008, 07:53:14 PMActually odeon... He raised a good point that I didn't notice before.Cyber-Bullying is general against the law IIRC. And would likely be against the TOS of this site's Host and most users' ISPs...Something to think about.Where's the bullying? TCO calls people names all over the place, people reply. He demands action to be taken against a member who allegedly broke the TOS of *another* site, I point out that we don't moderate this place. There are disclaimers in place, people point this fact out all the time, he doesn't listen but calls those he sees as evil more names, including, in passing, the entire autistic community.Where's the bullying, GA?
