📌 Tip 34 of 72 🏷️ cyberbullying 👶 Ages 3–5

A message sent in anger lives forever as a screenshot.

Even if you delete your own message, someone else can screenshot it before you do.

Before you type something you might regret, put your phone down for 10 seconds and ask yourself: "Would I say this out loud to this person’s face?" If the answer is no, rewrite it or don’t send it.

💬 Talk to your kid about this

Ask your child: "If a friend told you they were being cyberbullied, what could you do to help them?"
