Nearly one in six adolescents have experienced cyberbullying, an international study has found.
More school-aged children have reported being cyberbullied compared to before the Covid-19 pandemic, according to a report by the World Health Organisation (WHO) Regional Office for Europe.
A study, which looked at bullying among adolescents from 44 countries and regions, including England, Wales and Scotland, found 15% reported being cyberbullied at least once or twice in the past couple of months.
The Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) survey, of more than 279,000 people aged 11, 13 and 15 years old in 2021/22, suggests the proportion of adolescents who reported being cyberbullied has increased since 2018, from 12% to 15% for boys and 13% to 16% for girls.
Addresses and phone numbers are public. Instead of a phone book now you can just search a website.

Not sure about kids. But with a last name and a city it can be pretty easy to find the parents. Here is one example of such a site if you wanna check it out.

Her name did not turn up, but her last name is unusual, so they might have figured it out from that. If there are any people other than us in this small city with our last name, I’d actually be surprised.
Yeah. Whitepages will list all people and phone numbers related to a person. You just have to pay them for it.
You can also ask them to remove it, but it doesn’t keep it off forever.
However, these are 13-year-olds, so I don’t think they paid for it.
Wow. That sucks.
