Unless and until our society recognizes cyber bullying for what it is, the suffering of thousands of silent victims will continue.

Girl Scouts is a girl-serving organization, so our members are girls.

Many people don't know, but American Girl Scouts get to travel the world, and that's a very good thing, as the more we can expose our young people to other cultures, the better off we'll be in this increasingly globalized environment.

At Girl Scouts, we create leaders.

What gets posted online is not short term, and is open for easy misinterpretation. Messages and pictures spread faster through the Internet than they ever could by word of mouth.

Cyber bullies can hide behind a mask of anonymity online, and do not need direct physical access to their victims to do unimaginable harm.

Girls who lead turn in to women who thrive.
