Abstract

Cyber bullying is a new trend that is quickly spreading between young people. Middle school children are the omes mostly affected by this type of harassment. My Capstone project involved creating a "Cyber Bullying Awarness Day Fair". Victims of any type of bullying show a much lower degree of self confidence. The goal is to raise children's self-esteem, give them tools to deal with cyber bullying and educate parents on the issue and what they can do to protect their children.
