“With new and better technology, cyberbullies are more active and more prevalent than ever. Cyberbullying can happen anytime, anywhere, not just at school. Often, hurtful comments or images are sent anonymously so they are hard to track down and delete. With the emergence of virtual camps, it’s important that camp directors, counselors and parents know how to recognize cyberbullying and to respond to it,” said Tracy Schmeltzer.
