New York Times Article: Cyberbullying

http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/11/27/more-teens-victimized-by-cyber-bullies/

From the article by Tara Parker-Pope: (Article includes important comments)

"As more and more young people have access to computers and cell phones, a new risk to teens is beginning to emerge. Electronic aggression, in the form of threatening text messages and the spread of online rumors on social networking sites, is a growing concern. Researchers estimate that between 9 percent and 34 percent of youth are victims of so-called “cyber-bullies.” And as many as one out of five teens has bullied another youth using digital media, reports a special issue of the Journal of Adolescent Health."
