Parents Asked For Help In Combating Cyber-bullying

Parents are being asked to help combat cyber-bullying.

OPP offer a "Respect Technology" program to schools in the Rainy River district.

But Constable Anne McCoy says parents can also learn how to protect, prevent and deal with the issue of cyber-bullying by finding tips on the website Commonsensemedia.org.

McCoy says many incidents of bullying are the result of comments made on social media sites that spread in a matter of seconds.
