WAVE 3 is committed to helping parents in the fight to keep kids safe from bullying. Earlier this year, we helped get a law passed that's now in effect, but will it help fight the new bully who does battle online? WAVE 3 Investigator Janelle MacDonald is looking into what the law can and cannot do to protect your kids.



Cyber bullies are the least of my worries as is text messages and phone calls. Bullying that is supposed to be ZERO tolerance INSIDE the schools is the big problem to me.

M~J if you have young teens at home you will find that the biggest part of cyber bullies are other teens that your kids come face to face with everyday in school. We had some cyber bullieing going on here and it turned into a big beat down of a kid that thought he was with friends when the bullie showed up at the park. They used thier phone cams and put it on my space. I checked on what my granddaughter was in a couple of weeks ago and found her in a what i called a bullie match (yes shes give me some trouble) and i didn't even let her log off i pulled the plug and the computers in our home are now locked. I haven't read the whole law yet but if it targets all bullieing i for it, but parents and guardiens need to be held accountable to.

MJ,more parents should take the same involved position that you do with regard to your kids and the internet.
So many now, use the internet and television to be the almighty babysiter and have no idea what their kids are getting into.
But of course, they are all good kids.

We can watch what they are doing on the computer from our own. We didn't used to have it networked but it is these days.

M*J HELP, how do I do this, the thing were i can watch the girls on thier computers from mine! can you do this with laptop too? Or tell me someone that gives a class on this? This I think is a stupid question on my part because my husband just ask me if that wouldn't be cosidered "SPYING", but there was a friend in the room with her and i know it embarresed her and i don't like doing that eather, counsilers say that kills thier self-astema. It was hard being a mom in the 70's & 80's but now days, sometimes i wish i had my wisdom teeth back so i could have them pulled again! I am very proud of my three adult kids, but i ALWAYS worry about my grandkids!!!
