It’s My Life website is produced by PBS Kids. The site is an interactive site for kids 10 and up. There are a wide range of topics discussed on the page, from alcohol, to eating disorders, to bullies. Each topic has a designated page where tweens can find information, share their stories, read about other people’s experiences and find answers on how to deal with the issue. On the bully page, there is a description of what bullying is, whose a bully?, who’s a target? how to handle it, and many more question about bullying. There is also Beat the Bully game, video link to watching others share their experiences with bullies, a blog for kids to interact with one another, there is also an option to see the material in Spanish. There is a link which posted hot-lines to call and organizations to visit if the tween is in need of help. There are also a list of places tweens can go to help others and volunteer their time and efforts in stopping bullying. This site has a lot of great information and answers for questions about bullying, but it also has a lot of great interactive options, so tweens can be a part of solving the bully problem rather than just being told what to do.
