Shaheen Shariff: Sexting and Cyberbulling: Defining the Line for Digitally Empowered Kids

---

Shaheen Shariff’sSexting and Cyberbullying: Defining the Line for Digitally Empowered Kidspresents an ambitious and thorough attempt to illuminate the various ethical, social, and legal considerations that surround cyberbully-ing. As her recurring dislike of the term ‘‘cyberbullying’’ reveals, this concept admits much nuance, and a good deal of the book serves accordingly as an effort to minimize the generational gap in understanding between the children who expertly engage in using various digital media and the adults who attempt to monitor, regulate, and understand these children’s actions. Ultimately, her arguments culmi-nate in a body of evidence-based policy recommendations and educational tools that signal her hopes that the issues of sexting and cyberbullying can be dealt with effectively through a preventative, rather than reactive, approach. The book may have originally been intended for lawyers, par-ents, lawmakers, and educators, but ultimately it achieves a high level of accessibility that makes it more than suitable for reading by post-secondary (and even mature secondary) students. Shariff does not deny the presence of gaps in her research, but she acknowledges that her team continues to fill these through ongoing investigation. She also stresses that once her current research has been completed (in 2016), she will undoubtedly have a very different version of this book to present. Thus, in its current, slightly incomplete state, Shariff’s book manages nonetheless to
present comprehensive and thoughtful views on cyberbul-lying in its context among DE (digitally empowered) kids,
and in raising many intriguing questions it serves as an effective introduction to thinking through the many com-plexities of digitally empowered generations
