Well, this isn't funny anymore. Hey, what's up? Ready to work on our project? Wait, is something wrong? No, well, yeah. That player 3 got online and was trash talking. Trash talking? Really? Yeah, and I know I should ignore it, but, well, words do hurt sometimes. I know how you feel. I once posted a photo of my dog, and because I forgot to make the photo private, anyone could comment on it. What happened? The comments were totally mean, and I didn't even know those people. What did you do? You mean after I burst into tears? Well, I remember the rules of S.T.O.P. Stop. S. Step away. T. Tell a trusted adult. O. Okay sites first. P. Pause and think online. I tried to follow that advice, and believe me, it's not easy. So I told my big sister, who said that true friends support each other. No bashing allowed. Remember, there's always someone else on the other side of that screen. How do you treat others online?
