	==Cyberbullying ~~and~~ Online Gaming==		==Cyberbullying dan Online Gaming==

	~~Playing videogames is a popular activity~~, ~~with~~ 72 ~~percent of teens gaming~~ online. ~~Many~~ video ~~games – whether they are console~~, web, or computer-based ~~– allow users to play with friends they know in person and others they have met only~~ online. ~~While gaming can have positive benefits like making new friends~~, ~~socializing~~, ~~and learning how to strategize and problem solve~~, ~~it is also another place where~~ cyberbullying ~~occurs~~.		Bermain videogame adalah aktivitas populer, 72 persen remaja bermain online game. Banyak permainan video - entah itu konsol, web, atau computer-based - memungkinkan pengguna bermain dengan teman yang mereka kenal secara langsung dan juga orang lain yang mereka temui hanya online. Sementara game bisa memberi manfaat positif seperti membuat teman baru, bersosialisasi, dan belajar bagaimana menyusun strategi dan pemecahan masalah, ini juga tempat lain dimana cyberbullying terjadi.

	Anonymity ~~of players and the use of avatars allow users to create~~ alter-egos ~~or fictional versions of themselves~~, ~~which is part of the fun of gaming~~. ~~But it also allows users to harass~~, bully, ~~and sometimes gang up on other players~~, ~~sending or posting negative or hurtful messages and using the~~ game ~~as a tool of harassment~~. ~~If someone is not performing well~~, ~~other children may curse or make negative remarks that turn into bullying~~, ~~or they might exclude the person from playing together~~.		Anonymity pemain dan penggunaan avatar memungkinkan pengguna membuat alter-egos atau versi fiktif dari diri mereka sendiri, yang merupakan bagian dari kesenangan bermain game. Namun, hal itu juga memungkinkan pengguna melecehkan, mem-bully, dan terkadang menyerang pemain lain, mengirim atau mengirim pesan negatif atau menyakitkan dan menggunakan game sebagai alat pelecehan. Jika seseorang tidak berkinerja baik, anak-anak lain mungkin akan mengutuk atau membuat komentar negatif yang berubah menjadi intimidasi, atau mereka mungkin mengucilkan orang tersebut untuk tidak bermain bersama.

	~~Because players are anonymous~~, ~~they cannot necessarily be held accountable for their behavior~~, ~~and their harassment can cause some players to leave games~~. ~~Some anonymous users use the~~ game ~~as a means to harass strangers or to get their personal information~~, ~~like user names and passwords~~.		Karena pemain adalah anonim, mereka tidak dapat dimintai pertanggungjawaban atas tingkah lakunya, dan pelecehan mereka dapat menyebabkan beberapa pemain lain meninggalkan game. Beberapa pengguna anonim menggunakan game ini sebagai alat untuk melecehkan orang asing atau untuk mendapatkan informasi pribadi mereka, seperti nama pengguna dan password.

	~~There are things adults can do to prevent~~ cyberbullying ~~of children who are gaming~~:		Ada beberapa hal yang bisa dilakukan orang dewasa untuk mencegah cyberbullying pada anak-anak yang sedang bermain game:

	* Play the game or observe when the gaming happens to understand how it works and what a child is exposed to in the game.		* Play the game or observe when the gaming happens to understand how it works and what a child is exposed to in the game.

Social Media Apps and Sites Commonly Used by Children and Teens

Digital media and apps allow children to communicate and express their creativity, connect with peers, and share their feelings. However, they can be an avenue through which cyberbullying occurs. There are many types of apps and sites available for free that give users the ability to search for people and share or post information about them anonymously.

Parents may not be aware of the apps that their children use regularly or may not be aware of the risks involved in using them. There are many ways that cyberbullying can be hidden in apps and sites, such as texts, videos, and web calls that disappear or do not appear on the device’s call or text message logs.

Many apps also make it easy for users to access, view or participate in adult or harmful content. Privacy and location settings may make them more vulnerable to stalking, cyberbullying, exposure to adult content, or other dangers.

Some current popular social media venues and apps include:

Chatroulette: There are over 20 different chat roulette sites that allow users to instantly connect via webcam and video chat. Sites typically pair the users randomly and instantly.

Screening for harmful content on websites and apps varies widely.
Content posted can be incorrect, harmful, or hurtful (e.g., why are you so dumb?).
Can be used to share harmful or adult content.
Privacy controls over who can view or access posted material vary across apps, and many users are not aware of how to use them effectively.
Apps that allow for real-time user videos “live streaming” can been used to show bullying, violence, suicide, and harmful acts as they are happening.
Some apps that include location information can be used to get personal information, such as someone’s age, current location, or where someone lives.
Apps that support telephone calls do not show up on a call log, so parents may not know who their children are talking to.

Cyberbullying and Online Gaming

Playing videogames is a popular activity, with 72 percent of teens gaming online. Many video games – whether they are console, web, or computer-based – allow users to play with friends they know in person and others they have met only online. While gaming can have positive benefits like making new friends, socializing, and learning how to strategize and problem solve, it is also another place where cyberbullying occurs.

Anonymity of players and the use of avatars allow users to create alter-egos or fictional versions of themselves, which is part of the fun of gaming. But it also allows users to harass, bully, and sometimes gang up on other players, sending or posting negative or hurtful messages and using the game as a tool of harassment. If someone is not performing well, other children may curse or make negative remarks that turn into bullying, or they might exclude the person from playing together.

Because players are anonymous, they cannot necessarily be held accountable for their behavior, and their harassment can cause some players to leave games. Some anonymous users use the game as a means to harass strangers or to get their personal information, like user names and passwords.

There are things adults can do to prevent cyberbullying of children who are gaming:

Play the game or observe when the gaming happens to understand how it works and what a child is exposed to in the game.
Check in periodically with your child about who is online, playing the game with them.
Teach your children about safe online behavior, including not clicking on links from strangers, not sharing personal information, not participating in bullying behavior of other players, and what to do if they observe or experience bullying.
Establish rules about how much time a child can spend playing video games.
