Hi Stephen, Mediation is much better than confrontation! Tim posted very valid points in his reply. Cyber bullying / inappropriate activity / anti-social behaviour using technology needs to be addressed. Parents need to guide young children's online activities to prevent risks. Discuss with your child measures to create a safer online environment, and what is OK and what is NOT OK...
It is important to remember - we all have rights and we all have the right to be treated with dignity and respect. Do not judge others by what you are told but by what you believe yourself.
