Agreed, but what are the parents doing allowing their kids to use the internet unsupervised at those ages?

My cousin used to get shit online, was about 15-16 and used to post the corniest stuff on Facebook, consistently, and get shit for it. Then he would carry on posting it. He didn't even delete the perpetrators from his friends list, I used to see them commenting & ganging up on him and want to kick their heads in but I stayed out of it cos I wanted him to stick up for himself plus there wasn't really much I could do anyway.

This will make me sound harsh, & I don't think anyone deserves to be bullied, but some people (like my cousin) really don't help themselves.
