Pass a federal law prohibiting online bullying, and create a framework to identify and counsel offenders and victims.

Created by A.D. on July 19, 2012

Online bullying is rampant, and detrimental to the mental and physical health of our children.

Congress needs to pass a law to not only prohibit online bullying, but to provide a way for victims to report bullying in a safe and anonymous manner.

Cyberbullying should be considered criminal, since it can result in both mental harm and physical harm to the victims. Bullying causes depression, self-harm, and suicide in teens, who are the most common users of the social networking sites the bullying occurs on.
