Should Parents Be Criminally Liable For Kids' Cyberbullying?
Should Parents Be Criminally Liable For Kids' Cyberbullying?
Two girls in Florida, 14 and 12, have been arrested and charged with aggravated stalking -- cyberbullying.
They
allegedly tormented a 12-year-old girl named Rebecca so relentlessly that last
month, Rebecca leapt to her death from a tower in an abandoned concrete plant.
The arrest
came after the following post was made on the 14-year-old's Facebook account:
"Yes IK I bullied REBECCA nd she killed herself but IDGAF." Polk
County Sheriff Grady Judd said he would charge the parents if he could, but there were no
"obvious charges" against them.

Bully. What does the word make
you think of? For some people, it's that girl at school who always makes fun of
them. For others, it's the biggest guy in the neighborhood who's always trying
to beat them up or take their things. Sometimes "bully" means a whole
group of kids, ganging up on someone else. No matter what situation or form it
comes in, bullying can make you feel depressed, hurt, and alone. It can keep
you from enjoying the activities and places that are part of your life.

When the Bully Is a Sibling
New research suggests
that even when there are no physical scars, aggression between siblings can
inflict psychological wounds as damaging as the anguish caused by bullies at
school or on the playground. The findings offer an unusual look at an area of
family life that has rarely been studied, in part because infighting among
brothers and sisters is widely considered a harmless rite of
passage.
