1. Cyberbullying
How can YOU avoid cyber
bullying on social
networks? See what
happens when Pikachu
sets up his Facebook page.
2. This is Pikachu. He is just another underage
kid with a Fakebook. While you are
watching this PowerPoint, you should keep
in mind that what happened to him could
happen to you, too.
3. Richu’s single
harmless comment
to cheer on his
friends (other
electric types)
started all of the
bullying. It was
misinterpreted by
others (who
thought they were
being insulted).
They started
negative comments
in their attempt to
express their anger,
as most bullies do.
4. Pikachu does another harmless thing, asking a
question, and the bullies start to get meaner as
they get madder. This anger could have been
caused by many things, such as jealousy or stress.
5. The victims tried to stand
up to the bullies multiple
times, but each time the
bullies found some way
to counteract their
statements.
The bullies were blind to
the fact that all of what
the victims were saying
could happen at any time
and that they could get in
big trouble for
cyberbullying.
6. Saving the evidence was a great idea so that now
the victims have proof of the cyberbullying.
The victims’ replies started to convince the
cyberbullies that bullying is wrong and that they
should stop doing it.
7. The victims pointed out why they felt it was
wrong, and the bullies started to back
down and stop cyberbullying them.
8. The bullies realized what they had gotten
themselves into once their anger started to fade.
They apologized for being mean and decided that
they would never cyberbully anyone again.
