Insulting Jokes and Cyber Bullying
Insulting Jokes and Cyber Bullying
As adults we have learned that insulting jokes are not funny, but even more so that they are completely unnecessary.
Insulting jokes are always a popular choice among cyber bullies. It is an easy way to hurt someone’s feelings and also incite a crowd to join in on the insulting accusations. When you are the recipient of jokes like that more often than not you feel embarrassed among your peers, personally humiliated, and in some instances afraid of the cyber bully that started the joke.
Because children may not know how to respond or handle a situation like this, parental involvement should be a priority. It is also important to remember that this can be a sensitive subject with younger children and they may not confront you about the insulting jokes in the first place.
This is why we recommend Spector Pro.
With monitoring software you may record all of these places where there is a chance a cyber bully is lurking around waiting to find someone to pick on.
In many cases if you talk to the bullies’ parents about what is happening, the issue will resolve itself, but if necessary you will have the ability to print out the recorded events and provide them to your local law enforcement agency, or your child’s school guidance counselor.

Is online bullying fun?
Cyber bullying may seem like a fun thing for the person that is doing the bullying, but this most likely leaves the victim feeling isolated and depressed. As a parent you need to take every possible action to prevent this kind of behavior affecting your child’s life.
Is cyber bullying a group effort?
In many instances cyber bullying can be a group effort. It may be initiated by one person, but before too long there are others that take it upon themselves to intimidate the victim. This can often leave a child feeling very "small" when a group of bullies are on the prowl.
Learn what to do
With proper planning, talking to your children about cyber bullying is not as difficult as you may think. In fact, taking the first steps to resolving or discovering this kind of activity will diminish the chances that they will encounter it in the first place.
Testimonials:
"When bullying is done over the Internet you think you can get away with it because you don't see the emotional reaction as if it were done face to face. You don't see the person crying and being upset. So it is much easier to be more mean and hurtful. When I received those e-mails It took me long to recover but thank to my Mom who found out right on time I'm back to being my self."
