I found this in the Emily post link and it's really great.

I especially liked the online harassment page. It's been such a huge issue at our school. We've had the FBI at our school for a facebok incident, students expelled/suspended/changing schools. There have been multiple incidents from junior high through senior year. It's been a very eye-opening year for me. Our school has author Rachel Simmons coming to give a talk about female aggression/relational aggression. I'm curious to hear how she addresses online aggression. Her book, odd girl out, was published pre facebook/texting phenomenon. But i think this link is a good start to a life-long issue. It's age appropriate and a good jumping point for conversations.
