The internet just makes it that much easier to be anonymous when bullying. Will--I noticed that your list of things you are doing as a parent are pretty universal and will cause your kids to recognize bullying whether it is in cyberspace or in their neighborhood. Because of the anonymity of cyberspace, these conversations become more important. Kudos to you for starting those conversations with kids.

He even sent out a phone message to all the households in the county with kids in school about online and instant message bullying. The message was pretty good--talk to your kids, monitor their online activities, etc. Nothing about eliminating technologies. But he has recently called for the banning of cell phones district-wide. I think he has tried this other tack recently because he got so much resistence on the ban idea. Keep up the good work!
