I have treated many young people who have been casualties of similar incidents, with footage of them being cruelly pranked in a school bathroom or intimate images of them shared among large online communities. However, asking young people not to endorse the aggressor’s actions by ‘liking’ or sharing the incident on social media seems a good place to start.
