Handle Cyberbullying

One evening a message popped up on Kavi's screen. It said something mean. Kavi felt a hot, cross feeling and nearly typed something mean straight back. Then Kavi stopped. "If I fight back, it only gets worse," thought Kavi. So Kavi did the smart thing instead: didn't reply, took a picture of the screen to keep as proof, blocked the sender, and went to tell a trusted grown-up at home. The grown-up helped, and the mean messages stopped. A clever owl knows: being unkind online is called cyberbullying — you never have to handle it alone, and you respond well by staying calm and telling someone you trust.
