This sounds harsh but as a parent you have to learn how to bully your kids.
In small ways and then give them a cuddle.
If they do something wrong, yes, yell at them.
Then explain what they did wrong and how not to do it again.
(ie. Last night I threatened to delete all Miss 8's DS games from her DS if she didn't shut up and eat her dinner.)
I would have followed through with it too. The only thing is I have a complete backup of all the games and saves she has so at some point I would have put them back but I didn't have to.
She had a small cry, ate her dinner and I gave her a cuddle when she was finished.
Even every once and a while give them a smack if it is needed.
Showing tough love at times followed by soft love will teach them how to deal with bullies even if they don't realise it.

Too many parent don't show enough of anything to their kids and their kids know that their parents don't really care.
I had those sorts of parents and that why my sister is dead but my parents don't even realise it's their fault the road she took.
I on the other hand worked out right from wrong regardless of my parents lack influence.

So the fact that neither of her parents noticed anything doesn't surprise me.
The fact her friends didn't does.

By coincidence, thereââ'¬â"¢s another similar sad case today.

Mail Online, Friday, Aug 16 2013

Teenager, 17, kills himself after blackmailers trick him into thinking he is on Skype with a girl his own age then threaten to send video of the conversation to his family and friends
Daniel Perry, 17, was ordered to pay money after conversation was hijacked

Furthermore,
ââ'¬Å"Child welfare charities have warned that they are getting dozens of calls every week from suicidal children as young as 11 caught in the same trap.ââ'¬Â

Seems a nice kid

Itââ'¬â"¢s becoming a plague and something has to be done about it. The web is full of evil of many kinds: malware, phishing, blackmailing and can result in young people taking their own lives. Yet, all authorities care about is paying intellectual rights on music and movies. You dodge those and theyââ'¬â"¢ll invade your house, confiscate your equipment and put you in prison.

2 blokes played a trick on another bloke and set him up with a date with a non existant woman...he travelled about 300 miles to meet her. To find out it was all a trick...there are some seriously sad people around that find doing this stuff amusing

A bloke around the corner had his fence and letter box kicked in.
The teenagers were caught after he saw them walking to school a week or so later.
He had them charged and when it went to court he offered them both a plea deal to drop the charges.
He wanted to go into their houses and smash something of theirs with a hammer.
Neither one took up the offer and now both have to pay this bloke and the neighbour for the repairs on the fence and do 20 hours of community work.

I think he should have been allowed to smash something anyway.

Same with these aholes who prey on kids.
A bullet to the heads of a few of them and they would stop.

Hey a bullet to the heads of most people like this would be a great solution.

I blame the parents, but kids too. Is it too hard to close the account on ask.fm? Ask.fm can not check every conversation. An investigation showed that she sent those messages from her IP, so no one actually had the conversation with her.

there is a fb website set up that is trying to push for the closure of ask.fm so far fb have done nothing to stop it. Because the ask.fm is being run from east europe/russia there is no legal jurisdiction over it when it comes to EU. They all know its happening and no one wants to do anything about it. There have been multiple cases of bullying from that website over the last yr or so...but it all boils down to money doesn't it and lack of responsibility of the owners
