cyberbullying research center   "The internet is not a place to harass others or hurt them. The internet is supposed to be a place that is safe and fun for people, not a place to be criticized or harassed. I used to be bullied at school frequently and I was sometimes hurt so badly that I had to fake sick at school just so I could go home. One girl actually told me she would come and murder my parents and kill me personally. She made me cry so hard that I threw up. So, I know firsthand what its like to be bullied beyond your imagination." (12 year-old girl from Michigan)

What They're Saying...
"We were fortunate in Nassau County, Florida to bring Dr. Hinduja to our middle schools as part of a Learn 'n Serve grant. After meeting with students in classrooms, club meetings and assemblies, Dr. Hinduja was able to bring our county's dialogue about cyberbullying to a different level. He was flexible about the setting he spoke in, the size of the audience he spoke to, the time he was allowed to present in, and the busy schedule required of him. Administrators appreciated having a copy of his book as a resource, students appreciated his real world cyber experiences, and I appreciated his passion for and expertise of his subject. Keep up the good work, Dr. Hinduja! Your message is going to continue to be relevant for youth, teachers and administrators for years to come." Kim Clemons, Project Manager, Office of Intervention and Prevention, Nassau County School District
