AbBeGal: We need to stop online bullying.
We are all adults and it needs to start with us. Otherwise how can we expect our kids to do the same.

AbBeGal: Work with room moderators
Or we can start rooms and we are the moderators or administrators and we can block people who bully
Or we just report people who bully.

pinkedden: Do you think rewarding good chatting is going to be productive when you are dealing with adults.
IRL our conduct reflects on our friends, our acceptance in society and so on, online should be the same.
Teach our kids to treat others as we expect to be treated and lead by example.

AbBeGal: For starters we have to define bully. In rooms we will all have difference of opinions. It is when name calling and the bashing we need to stop

AbBeGal: Normal people wouldn't tell someone they dont know that they have a big forhead unless they were ask to critique. Depending on the circumstance, yes it could be a bullying comment. We think of bullies of people making someone give up their lunch money, stuffing someone ins locker or a dumpster, etc. However bulling can also be verbal. It is harder to define however it is usually putting someone down. However online there are many discussions between people who do no agree on a subject or topic. That isn't bullying as people will disagree all the time and everyone believes differently. However if the disagreement became verbally offensive they can be bullying. It is hard online as people hide Venus a computer and personas. However verbal bullying online can be just as dangerous (especially online) as people don't know how the other person will react. It is possible the other person may have mental issues and what may be an innocent comment can send them over the edge.

AbBeGal: No. I'm a third grade teacher and we try to teach this kids that bullying is wrong. At school there is zero tolerance for bullying. In the middle and high school there are all these anti billying assemblies and seminars kids, parents, teachers are supposed to take including cyber bullying. Yet here there are these so called adults who Billy each other. How can we tell and teach the youth not to Bully when we do all the time???

charliexhustle: I think we should step up moderator involvement. the only way to stamp out this bullying is having a wire minder for every potential problem chatter, which if you think about it, is everyone.

I for one, welcome our new wiremod overlords.

Queenie The Poo: I totally agree with what you are saying, AbBeGal. How can we teach our kids to be kind to people when they see adults being bullies everywhere? Zero tolerance is the way to go, it's like that in most schools here too. I think some adults are just extremely insecure and the only way to make themselves feel better is to point out other people's flaws, etc. That's exactly where bullying starts. I think the old adage ''if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything'' should be in everyone's minds. But again ... some people just don't care, which is sad for this world.
