RECENT data indicates a rise in reported cases of cyberbullying among adults over the age of 20. However, research shows that cyberbullying affects individuals of all ages, with many incidents going unreported due to stigma or under-reporting.

While the psychological effects of cyberbullying can vary, the detrimental impacts – emotionally, financially, legally, and socially – are the same across all age groups.
