Cyberbullying is a serious problem in the United States, and Seventeen magazine tackled the issue head-on in their August issue. Deleting digital drama is the focus of the August edition of Seventeen. ABC Family teamed up with Seventeen on a national campaign to raise awareness about cyberbullying, or as they call it, digital drama.
Look for special [delete] digital drama t-shirts at Charlotte Russe stores. Proceeds from the [delete] shirts will go to the national Stomp Out Bullying campaign.
Whether you pick up a [delete] shirt or not, remember that it only takes one person to take a stand and help someone who is being bullied. If you see bullying happening in your school or community, take a stand and find the courage to talk to an adult about your concerns. Unfortunately, bullying might look like simple kid stuff on the surface, but it can have very serious consequences. Bullying can lead to depression and suicide, and suicide is a leading cause of death for teenagers in America.
Get involved and learn more about the bullying laws at your school or community. Send a letter or email to your representative urging them to consider legislation that will protect children at school, online and anywhere in their community. Take a stand and stomp out bullying today!
